Your formulation is misrepresenting the weight of the scales. Please seriously
take into account the overall benefit for D for both decisions. The feature is
nearly useless and more harmful, and "newbies coming
from C/C++" is, again, a misrepresentation as discussed above. It is also
incorrect - someone used to e.g. using SDL bindings on another language may
expect that the types returned by the binding would be compatible with the
language's native functionality.
