Assuming a comparison to C++, you know perfectly well that D has a severe
disadvantage. Unless people micro-manage final (I've never seen anyone do
this to date), then classes will have significantly inferior performance to
C++.
C++ coders don't write virtual on everything. Especially not trivial
accessors which must be inlined.
