He never said that Phobos is unusable and actually said that 
experience with normal GC + Phobos are quite good and that 
"normal D" is better than Go (good for D he doesn't do web 
development and doesn't know that D has nothing to do in modern 
cloud web area).

But he just wanted to use something that is lower-level and based 
on the name "betterC" thought that it is really some mode of the 
language that is better than C.. But faced with some issues about 
that - so his the main point was that the name is misleading and 
flag should be renamed to something else.
