Surely this must be more of a convention than a rule. Unless you are
writing a standard library I think you should be able to use whatever

If you live in a cave and there is zero probability that I will see and use the
D code you write, then you are free to write D code as you like.
Otherwise if you want to contribute the D community with your code, then you
are supposed to follow basic language conventions, like using struct/class
names that start with upper case, function/method names that start with lower
case, and no underscores inside them.

I haven't yet found the official document describing the naming standard
for D, so seeing such an assertive statement from you just had to
trigger a reaction in me. Actually, I tend to use the same basic
convention as you, but there are other conventions that are equally
valid, in my view.
I see you have now started a thread in d.D about this. That will be
interesting.
