Why is D unpopular?

The primary reason I like using it, is because I only ever have 
to work with one compiler. I'm not against multiple compilers, as 
I've already stated. But I like the assurance of only ever 
needing to use one compiler (particulary in a business 
environment where business like expectations exist around 
support, maintenance etc).

Now if I'm the only one in the world who feels that way, I'd be 
suprised.

When I see a language the explicately sprouts how many compilers 
it has, I get a little concerned, due to my experience with C.

Just 'the perception' (the reality might be different) that I 
might have to deal with 'implementation defined' behaviour in D's 
various compilers, is enough to trigger PTSD.
