period.
any rationalizing of that is pointless.
The most sensible thing to do with all these may/may not be an
improvement and also the break/don't break my code issues is to
create an experimental branch of DMD after the transition from
C++ to D is finished. Then merge back the good stuff after
several iterations of improvement.
I'm sure Walter will be much more open to changes if there is a
proven demand for it, e.g. if people rave about certain features
in an experimental branch. Changing the main branch with "might
be a little bit better" changes is a hard sell when competing
languages are going stable.
