Wow, my head's spinning :)

That's a lot of data/concepts in one chapter. Have you considered how this chapter will be for a newbie programmer?

Like K&R, TDPL is intended for people who already know how to program in another language. Knowledge of a specific language is not recommended or required. The preface will make that clear.

Some reviewers are still concerned that I discuss topics a bit too advanced in the first chapter. I was suggested to adapt The Case for D instead of this first chapter.

Well you are an expert on reading books and that's what matters here.
