And that would have been a very important argument if D was targeted as
scripting language. But (I hope so!) it is not, thus, additional
well-defined reasoning about the code is more important then the "fluid
style". IMHO, of course.
As far as I understand this presupposes (a) a fluid style of programming
is associated exclusively with scripting languages, (b) scripting
languages have mutually exclusive benefits with systems languages. I
disagree on both counts, and large parts of D's design disagree as well.
