For me the only valid reason to drop SDL would be the IDE
integration. This is not what had triggered the "war" but
anyway...It seems that most of the D people don't use an IDE, so
they don't get the problem. But they should (use an IDE and get
why two formats is a problem).
Do you want to see the problem with people who don't use an IDE:
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pull/3821/files#diff-52580fb75b304ba7b04a6b178fe6cdf4L3085
with completion, the author would not import a module that does
not exist: std -> dot -> list popup...
;)
