You're right. GC is good for experts.
For plain users, he left when he heard `GC`. You can't increase 
the number of `user base`.
No matter how good your language is, it's useless.
Why can `Rust` attract `C/C++` users, but `d` can't. It's `GC`.
Without GC, D might have been popular `ten years ago`.`java` is a 
`big hole`.
Moreover, if the speed is increased by one point and the memory 
is reduced by one point, the customer will have more users. No 
one thinks users are enough.
The `speed/memory` of the machine is much more important than the 
`speed/comfort` of the programmer.
