D's free functions and simple module design are definitely points 
in it's favor. However that wasn't really my point. I was saying 
that from an non-C/C++/D perspective, "Console.WriteLine()" makes 
more immediate sense than "std.writeln()" albeit only marginally. 
Both Java and C# use a less cryptic naming convention in their 
standard libraries which I think helps when learning a language. 
For instance, "std.container" makes me think of a cup, while 
"System.Collections" makes me think of a bundle. It's probably 
just me, but for awhile I thought D didn't have a standard linked 
list structure because I kept looking in std.array for it.
