Why are unsigned to signed conversions implicit and don't emit a

I was partially wrong, thank you. If you take a look it has int/unt, short/ushort, etc, but it doesn't have byte/ubyte, it has sbyte/byte. In my opinion here the naming symmetry has being broken because for most programmers bytes are unsigned. In D I have suggested sbyte/ubyte, but I accept the C# solution too.
