It appears a significant limitation at the moment is an inability 
to run some of the DMD based tools on Apple silicon. According to 
Rikki's message a fix might not be available until next year 
(https://forum.dlang.org/thread/zblfxasjvskzpkfvdepl@forum.dlang.org). Perhaps important enough to bring to the attention of the D Language Foundation.
