Do people seriously consider D a "difficult" language?  Given that it has garbage
collection out of the box, builtin arrays, etc. I would have guessed that most
people only consider it to be of moderate difficulty.  Yes, you *can* do
down-and-dirty programming with pointers, manual memory management, etc. in it,
but you don't *have to* unless the nature of your problem domain would require it
no matter what the language.
