Expression body methods are evil

Creating a new controller with default action in ASP.NET can be easy. Let's take a look at some hastily written code:
public class FailController : Controller
{
public void Index() => View();
}
Opening localhost:5000/fail
yields blank page. Huh? Let's try localhost:5000/fail/index
.
Still nothing...
Before madness strikes in notice that the action doesn't return anything. Let's fix that:
public class FailController : Controller
{
public ActionResult Index() => View();
}
Now everything works and we can resume coding.
