Does D have too many features?

Not following the common naming conventions of a language is bad, 
or quite bad. Most or all modern languages seem to have realized 
this (Ruby, Python, C#, Go, Scala, and probably several others).

When I see D code written by other people it's very handy to 
guess some characteristics of the things I'm using assuming it 
follows the D common naming conventions. This makes reading code 
simpler, faster, reduces some chances of introducing bugs, and 
makes is quicker to hack into code written by other people.
