This is essentially an arbitrary restriction. The basic reason is if a

So anything I do at CTFE has to be betterC as well? That is a bummer.
This is an artificial, and not really intended, limitation. Essentially,
CTFE has to be a real function. If it's defined, it's expected to be
callable from runtime as well as CTFE.
But I can't see why, if you don't call from runtime, it should matter. I
think this has to do with the places betterC is enforced in the compiler.
I'll try to workaround this, but I would like to see this fixed. Is
there anything I can do to move this forward?
I'd suggest a bug report if one hasn't been made.
