This happens (I think) because Andrei and Walter really value 
your's and other expert's opinions, but nevertheless have to 
preserve the general way things work to preserve the long term 
future of D. They have to be open to persuasion but it would have 
to be very compelling to get them to change basics now - it seems 
to me.

D is at that difficult 90% stage that we all know about where the 
boring difficult stuff is left to do. People like to discuss 
interesting new stuff which at the time seems oh-so-important.
