I do not contest that. But will be a less-deceiving entry-point

It sounds like you have overly positive memories of D1. Working
with it daily and especially dealing with all the compiler bugs
we had back then (and still have with dmd1) - it is hardly an
experience I'd want newcomer to have. Lacking quality of the
toolchain kills any benefit from the language simplicity.
