Times have changed, and hardware performance is constantly
improving.
Programmers need to be able to easily get the most valuable
feedback on their code from the language server.
Errors given by the compiler are displayed quickly.
Show exactly the type of the variable.
Query exactly where the function is called.
Exactly where the query function is defined.
Also support refactoring code, you can't not adjust your code.
Advanced features of the language should also be supported:
CTFE
Generics
template
mixin
UFCS
and many more
The D language adds too many functions, which makes it difficult
to implement the language server.
