Sure. Often the only way to see if a feature is useful is to actually 
implement it and see what happens. Some features have succeeded and 
found uses far beyond my expectations (CTFE, string mixins) while others 
have pretty much languished (design by contract, complex numbers).

To some extent, we can't predict that. But I did find your arguments 
pretty strong.
