I'm not really in agreement with that. If you're coming from 
another language, you'll have to learn the differences. IMO D's 
solution is better...maybe you can convince the other languages 
to change.

I haven't read all of the (many) posts in this thread, so I'll 
leave it at that, since this has probably already been discussed. 
I didn't understand the example, but it's not actually the case 
that there's anything "broken", it's just different from what 
someone would expect if they tried to write C++ or Java in D.
