It's kind of not though.

I don't want a subset of D, I want DMD to not inject things in to 
my library that I just plain won't use.

I'd already considered -betterC, and immediately decided it was 
going to be too much hassle after writing one line and finding 
out the compiler doesn't agree with my coding style. The code is 
going to compile with and without -betterC, which itself is a 
massive undertaking at this point.

I've got a related point about the Unity guys writing High 
Performance C#. If C# is so good, why do you need a subset of it? 
This exact argument is what I have about -betterC. If D is so 
good, why do I need a subset of it?
