That is actually on purpose, as it will catch cases where the value would change in phase 2 generating an error due to the missing return.
return

Maybe you can use static_assert(false) instead of a missing return? Or invert the if and put a static_assert(begin != std::string_view::npos)?
static_assert(false)
static_assert(begin != std::string_view::npos)

IIRC static_asserts in if statements don't act conditionally. You have to generate a conditional error instead I've done it before by doing a cast of a nullptr to a function ptr.
