Yes, I made a mistake. There was a decision to remove it, but it just got
deferred and then overlooked.
Not making an excuse, but D has grown to the point where I can't keep it all in
my head at once. Hence at least one motivation for simplification. I've caught
Bjarne in errors with C++, too. So what.

There is a DIP process, and why we have a n.g. where people can discuss. A lot
of changes I felt were a good idea were dropped because of opposition on the
n.g., like dropping the initializer syntax in favor of sticking with expression
style.
