Ok. What would go wrong (in D) if I just replaced every
interface with an abstract class?
I think there's some confusion here, because B.foo is not
abstract. abstract on a class is not inherited by its methods.

Now, I'm confused, as you asked about abstract classes. So,
yes, you can define the abstractness of classes differently.
And what is your point?
I'm trying to narrow down exactly what patterns work with each
and how they overlap.
What I was trying to get at with the abstract method thing is that
abstract class C
{
void foo();
}
is an abstract class with a non-abstract method, whose
implementation is going to come from somewhere else (not a common
pattern in D).
class C
{
abstract void foo();
}
is an abstract class with an abstract method foo, which means you
have to override it in a inheriting class to get a non-abstract
class.
