Such rules are interesting, but I worry that they are both too clever and too 
obtuse. Having a lot of such rules may make using D very frustrating because 
you'll never know when you'll get hit by one of them.

I'd rather have a simpler, more orthogonal, and easier to remember rules that 
may have a downside here and there rather than a complex web of seemingly 
arbitrary ones.
