Thank you all for chiming in on that.

You've given me a solid direction on how to both address 
conversations of that nature and how to not worry about FOMO 
between programming languages (which I fear is the real crux of 
the problem). I will look into borrow-correct code as you 
mentioned, Walter, and continue to work with D because it's a joy 
to write.

Cheers.
