If you were working in an Enterprise (TM) with coworkers who
were potentially competence-challenged, would you want them
having access to the power of D's compile time code generation?
Would you like to read and debug code that randomly
intermingled D's different function call methods; having to
determine whether foo.bar represents calling the bar method of
foo, calling the function bar with foo as an argument, or
accessing the field bar on object foo?
Speaking from my enterprise seat, there are lots of "potentially
competence-challenged coworkers" in off-shore projects.
Maybe Google's target audience?
