I honestly don't get why D after 20yrs is being dragged (by a 
vocal minority) to become like rust. Shouldn't they be using rust 
already? A lot of very important new code is still being written 
in C++ (irrespective of its flaws). It's not like you can't write 
strict safe code in D either. Devs aren't stupid, it doesn't 
matter if strict is turned on by default or not at this point. 
They know what to do. There's way too many existing code in D to 
be dragging our feet with rust which is still niche by the way.
