"“But D has a GC!”, I hear you exclaim. Yes, but it’s also a 
systems programming language with value types and pointers, 
meaning that today, D isn’t memory safe. DIP1000 was a step in 
the right direction, but we have to be memory safe unless 
programmers opt-out via a “I know what I’m doing” @trusted block 
or function. This includes transitioning to @safe by default."
