While an enjoable read, I fear we are aiming too low.
Other languages like Rust or C# (or Java) have bounds check.
Maybe I was missing the point, but isnt the objective or the
feature of the betterC mode, is to integrate C code, in a D
program seamlessly by allowing to import C headers into a D
program
And then from that point forward, use D features that improve on
what C offers
..
Again maybe I completely misunderstood the betterC mode
but I thought that, that was it .. which justify the feature
being called betterC, since this mode specifically target C
And if it was, this is not really about how advanced a language
feature are
It is more how you can improve a C code based, by incrementally
integrating D without loosing performance, or control
