I don't think you need to regret saying anything. You've 
demonstrated a willingness to engage in a conversation that we 
can *all* learn from.

I also doubt anyone actually got offended ;-)

.. we're all pretty strong minded here.

But I get back to my point about "programmer" portability.

Other developers of newer languages just don't seem to get that.

And it's hardly surprising that D would be focused in some way, 
on languages used by the vast majority of programmers 
(C/C++/Java/C#... and dare I say it..python)

That is D's great strength. (and betterc is just a part of it - 
and not one that particulary interests me).

Because D resources are rather contstrained, betterc gets more 
push back than it really should. But the main take away point I 
get from that vision statement, is a greater focus on increasing 
contributions - which is really what D needs more than anything 
(apart from a correct and complete language specification).
