I don't know the story of how D resolved to not provide 'ulong'
and 'unsigned long' as equivalent, but I do understand the
motivation to keep things short and standard, with
1-word-per-basic-type.
I should say one thing though,
In C / C++:
unsigned x = f(); // this was traumatic. "unsigned" was an
actual type itself, not just a type qualifier.
