Indeed - Jai can be thought of as a cut-down version of D without 
GC, but with CTFE. I don't have access to Jai but from what I 
observe, D has everything Jai has.

Zig seems like a copy of Jai.

Neither of these languages offer anything new (from what I can 
see) - and that was my argument about better branding for 'leaner 
D' - which is not the same as 'better C'.
