I think what you could say is that D lacks _encapsulation_
which is also an OOP concept. So D is partially OOP but not
fully OOP due to there being no encapsulation in the language.
D does not lack encapsulation, it's just that the unit of
encapsulation is the module. Everything private in a module is
encapsulated from the perspective of the public API.
If you really want to prevent anything inside a module from
accessing the private parts of a class, you can put the class
in its own module.
Must we continue beating this horse?
Why is the unit of encapsulation the module though? Makes no
sense.
