I'm not really sure how to respond, you mostly just made 
statements about your worldview. For instance:

"C++ on a 64K machine is like using a tank to get to the grocery 
store". If you mean using all of C++ features, sure, that's 
inappropriate. If you mean that there are no C++ features that 
you could use in a microcontroller, there are non-trivial amounts 
of people the disagree with you.

"D for 16 bits wouldn't really be D, it would be a D variant with 
different
semantics and capabilities. (Like C++ for 16 bits.)" -> so far 
LDC with mtriple=msp430 has worked for me, for my needs. I don't 
really know what you mean by D for 16 bits...
