I've acknowledged it several times, and pointed out the problems with the
proposed solutions (transitivity, new pointer types).
Rust is a one-note language. Everything revolves around the borrow checker. That
does not work with D, which is a polyglot language. A borrow checker has to fit
in with the rest of the language. Of course that means compromise. Compromise
doesn't mean it's useless.
