One cringeworthy problem with D's implementation of interfaces
and classes is how D resolves method conflicts. Conflicting
interface methods are silently collapsed into one implementation,
which seems to be by design and is definitely incorrect.
interface Display {
void fmt();
}
interface Debug {
void fmt();
}
class C: Display, Debug {
override fmt() { } // implements both interfaces
}
At the very least, this should be an ambiguity error. Some
languages (C#, Rust) allow to disambiguate.
