When C++ programmers say that D-style ranges can't do everything 
C++ iterators can do, they seem to miss that sometimes it's a 
good idea to adopt a simpler language feature, that doesn't cover 
100% usages, if it covers 80-90% of the cases, and has a simpler 
syntax, and simpler semantics to understand for the programmer.
