No, it is the result of beta-quality.  You see the same reaction 
in other languages/frameworks when they claim to be 
near-production ready while not having a stable state.

Here's the core problem:

1. Define a stable set of functionality.
2. Implement it.
3. Improve on it for 3-10 years without changing the 
functionality.
4. Obtain extensive tooling.

Developers generally underestimate how much work it is to bring 
something from stable to what is commonly expected from 
production quality tooling.

D is pretty much somewhere between (1) and (2), will most likely 
not reach (3) and is far away from (4).

In C++ it is somewhat different, C/old C++ is at (4), C++11 is at 
(3), C++14 is at (2/3), C++17 is at (1).
