Data races are absolutely shared's problem. The issue is shared has never been
fully implemented. See https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14932

The only place you can see what shared is supposed to be is in Andrei's book
"The D Programming Language".

@safe exists to ensure memory safety; data races do not fall under that
umbrella.
