E.g. three compilers
Every other compiled language (and a lot of scripting ones) uses the fact of
multiple compilers for the language as a sign of adoption and ecosystem growth.
I've only ever seen people complain about D in this area. Never once have I seen
someone argue that the existence of PyPy hurts Python or gogcc hurts Go.
Back when D had only one compiler, dmd, people complained it had only one
compiler. Now that it has three, they complain that it has three.
Sometimes, ya just gotta ignore people.
