Not everyone agrees that an error _was_ made. There's a big difference between 
acknoweldging that non-nullable references could be useful and agreeing that 
having nullable references be the default was a bad idea. I very much that it 
will _ever_ happen that non-nullable references would be the default 
(certainly, it will _not_ happen in D2), even if they were added.
