It would be better, and more accurate, to state that 'The D
personality has had to evolve over a long period of time'.
Rust appeared..what..only 7 years ago? It has the advantage of
not having to evolve from a period beginning at least 10 years
before that..
IMHO..What will help the cause, in terms of keeping D as a
'modern' programming language, is the willingness of its
designers and its community to make and embrace 'breaking
changes' ... for example, making @safe the default, instead of
@system.
