The same reason:

Class class;
class.function;

doesn't work.  Because all class variables are references which point to 
nothing until you use 'new'.

A Class[] is an array of references to class instances which is filled with 
nulls by default.  You have to actually initialize the array by creating 
instances of the class.

Class[] arr;

foreach(ref c; arr)
    c = new C;
