This is one of biggest mistakes in dlang's design. They tried to
be "everything" (being both garbage collected and not, being both
safe and unsafe system language...), it backfired because as you
said, you always need to exclude some people or features.
IMO dlang needs to be splitted into two different languages one
for system and one for general-purpose safe language, but then
this means a breaking change to simply every existing D project.
