Was this tongue in cheek? If you _can_ use inference it was at least obvious enough to the compiler. Otherwise you're just saying "I use it when I feel like it."

   auto x = func(); // no idea about func return type

   auto x = new Widget(); // DRY

   auto sum (auto a, auto b); //  template function without boilerplate

Use the same principle in other contexts.
