It used to contain several languages. It was removed due to intense
criticism. Basically, those kinds of lists are so subjective that all
they do is cause offense. Especially when the list has colour coding
green/red/yellow where green implicitly means 'good'.
There might be some value in a list of key design decisions, and list
various languages as "same as D"/"different from D".
