Good point, but the issue boils down to this: do we define container 
members more often, or define container function parameters more often? 
Because inside a data structure value semantics are useful more often 
than not, and in a function parameter list reference semantics are 
useful more often than not.

I do agree that D programmers grown used to cheap-to-pass data and I 
don't want to cure anyone of hiccups :o).
