I can definitely see and relate to your points.  You're using 
sound arguments when making decisions about software in general.  
However, I think you have to consider the emotional impact of 
this.  If you walked into a printer company and found out they 
didn't use their own printers, what would that say to you?  Since 
dlang.org is the face of the D programming language, it's going 
to be the first thing people use to judge it.  IMO that makes it 
a big deal.
