I do not think anyone claimed D is "dead". Being "irrelevant" 
does not imply being "dead". Relevance depends on the standpoint. 
Yes, to many companies that use Java or .NET D is most likely 
irrelevant. Same goes to those that heavily depend on Python, 
and/or JavaScript/TypeScript. But, to a _very small_ group of 
people who still prefer to "go native" every now and then D is 
still relevant.

However. If by some miracle or something entire D codebase 
suddenly disappears (yes, Weka included), this civilisation will 
function without major disruptions. Sure there may be some 
hiccups, but those companies will easily find replacements.
