D's overview page says "It doesn't come with .... an overriding

Is philosophy not important?
I'd like to argue, that the problem of focusing on getting the
job done quickly and reliably, does *not* leave behind
maintainable, easy to understand code, but rather it leads to
unintended outcomes ...
If the philosophy of C, is 'the programmer is in charge', what
might the philosophy of D be?
e.g. Maximum precision in expression, perhaps?
It's not very catchy, but I would say "Genercity, productivity
and performance all at once".
