I agree with this and I dislike the trend with increasing 
mandatory usage of attributes/badging. If you like that you are 
probably already using Rust.

C# has shown that you can keep the badging to a minimal. It's the 
ease of use D should work towards.
For those who like overcomplicated languages, there are several 
that offer that.
