Yes. That's why I like D too.

My concern (which doesn't really affect me these days), is the 
potential for loss of productivity, from having to maintain 
someone else's D code - given the many different paradigms and 
features the D lang supports.

Finding developers that can be productive under those 
circumstances, may be challenging.

I think this would be a primary concern for anyone considering 
whether to adopt D into their codebase.

I go through a lot D code on github, to learn about how to use 
D...I still don't see the light at the end of the tunnel.. 
everyone uses it differently. I don't think that metaphor can 
even be used when it comes to D ;-)
