I think that at this point, almost everyone just uses variadic templates when 
they want a variadic function. Upon occasion, a typesafe variadic function 
makes sense, but C style variadics basically never make sense unless you're 
interacting with C, and in general, variadic templates are vastly superior to 
D variadics, so it's the variadic templates get used. And as most of just use 
the variadic templates, in the case of many of us, our knowledge of D style 
variadics is low.
