It is a much lesser problem that Phobos is weird than the 
language, libraries are easy to fix. But yes, I can't think of a 
single non-framework language that has shown growth over a long 
period of time without making aesthetics a selling point: Lisp, 
Haskell, Ruby, Python… Obviously if people are dealing with ugly 
on the job, they want something clean when they get to pick and 
choose.

Out of curiosity, did you give up on Aliced now that dmd is 
moving to D from C++?
