Comparing a logging framework with a basic print function is not 
a fair comparison. I'd like to point out that Python's logging 
module[1] also takes format strings.

So this really is just an argument of D's writeln vs Python's 
print. In which case, this seems like a small thing to get upset 
over. Yes, implicit spacing is convenient, but in some cases it 
isn't. It's a fairly arbitrary choice. I'd argue that D's writeln 
follows Python's philosophy of "Explicit is better than implicit" 
better than Python does.

But it's not overly hard to implement your own print function:

void print(Args...)(Args args) {
     foreach(i, arg; args) {
         if(i != 0) write(" ");
         write(arg);
     }
     writeln();
}
