It is common for development tools to list what is fully 
supported, and what is not. This should be known to the user 
before downloading.

Windows is listed on top on the download page with no comments.

Commercial has nothing to do with it. Professional tools don't 
hide maturity level and discourage production use until an 
acceptable maturity level has been reached.

What you basically are saying is that D is not a professional 
tool and thus professional standards don't apply hereā€¦
