The problem with trying to satisfy Reddit is that they want the 
GC removed from the language. They want it off by default, they 
want all language features to work without the GC, they want all 
of Phobos to be free of the GC, and they want all code anyone 
else writes in D to be written without the GC in case they want 
to call that code.

I'm all for adding additional features to the language for those 
that prefer to avoid the GC. But that's not what the anti-GC 
coalition is asking for.
