Is not a better strategy, is another strategy. Improving the GC is as
important as (or even more important than) having a -nogc option. But an
extremely efficient GC will not be suitable for all purposes (specially
for embedded systems, which is the origin of this thread). That's just
a fact, "there is no silver buller". So ignoring the need for a -nogc
option is not going to do things better.

Both things should be acknowledged, the need for a better GC and the need
for making easy to completely avoid the GC (which I agree, is less
important than the former, because most of the D code will use the GC).
