Advocacy (Was: Who here actually uses D?)

[Ulrik Mikaelsson]

"Messier" is a matter of perspective. C is a beautifully clear and
mature language, but some of the missing features (delegates for one)
often leads to unnecessarily convoluted code.

Hejlsberg describes it quite well as "Simplexity", roughly speaking,
when the tools are too crude, the produced result might not look as
refined as with better tools.
