Made-up theory that probably isn't worth anything without 
measurements:

In providing an improvement over C++, including more safety and 
GC, D (unwillingly) positionned itself being spiritual successor 
in the Wirth's family of language. And Niklaus Wirth was from 
Switzerland so _perhaps_ the nearby territory is already more 
favourable to alternatives native languages.

Let the speculation begin!
