I don't have a "left brain" - I'm not a mutant. I have one brain 
(that has two halves). My unreasonable expectations are 
surprisingly reasonable in other languages / communities.

Possible sounding explanation of unreasonable person:

- bad leadership, chaos, lack of vision / strategy, lack of 
understanding how business works

Real explanation:

- stupid user who doesn't understand D's philosophy and higher

Once this kind of posts are gone, it will mean one of two things:

either: 1. D has become a sound and reliable language with a good 
ecosystem.

or: 2. D has been abandoned by everyone but the zealots.
