I don't know. Like I said, while the feeling that D has completely lost 
its way is fairly universal, the claim that picking D was a mistake is 
not. There are some unique D features we are using to great effect, and 
people have gone used to the weaknesses.

I don't think, at this point, picking a different direction would have 
happened even if it were technically feasible.
