Sometimes you add from a language removing something, like 
allowing handy code like this, removing such limitations and 
making the language more regular/uniform:


class Foo {
     int x, y;
}
struct Bar {
     int x, y;
}
void main() {
     auto f1 = new Foo(1, 2);
     auto f2 = new Foo(1);
     auto b1 = new Bar(10, 20);
     auto b2 = new Bar(10);
}

Bye,
