They're not the _only_ target audience but they're surely the _main_ target 
audience.  Users of higher-level languages have presumably made the choice that 
systems-level performance is not their priority.

That said, I think there's a clear case for D to be made to people who currently 
have an "Other language plus C" toolchain.  I love D for the fact that it lets 
you use the high-level constructions of languages like Python but you can also 
drill down to systems level to optimize performance _without changing language_.
