C++ introduced the [[nodiscard]] attribute for this exact use case. A C# [NoDiscard] attribute would do the same thing with the help of a Roslyn analyzer I guess.

C# already by default warns on discarded return values.

No it does not, unless the discarded value is a Task in an async method. (or sometimes an IDisposable depending on what analyzers you have running)
