Languages provide a semantic view of how to model. A library
(like phobos) provides prebuilt components that implies a way to
model.
Universities should teach how to model in a consistent fashion so
that the semantics of the model is easy to grasp for an outsider.
Languages and their libraries should support this modeling effort
and make it easier.
It is important that a lot of thought has been put into libraries
and consistent naming and semantics, because they affect the
overall model.
Things like UFCS and certain aspect of phobos is making the model
less clear.
D needs to stop expanding and tighten what you have (or even
remove features).
