What? D certainly does "treat classes as types". Every class in D 
is its own type and supoorts the reguar methods of encapsulation 
as you would expect. The only difference is that in D, private 
class members and methods are module-public, meaning that 
anything else in the module can freely access them. That does not 
break encapsulation by any means, however.
