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.
