Yes, how about it? Is this a murder investigation? I have a hard time figuring out what is the ultimate purpose of spelunking my past statements to look for inconsistencies.
Hypocrisy is a pet peeve of mine. How about discussing the gory problems with const, and discussing the true state of the language at the next D talk? If you're going to bash Go presentations for cherry-picking, you should hold yourself to the same standards.
As for why I did the research, if people are going to deny statements I made, then I'm going to back them up with facts. I did rescind one erroneous statement of mine.
My original post was in response to a thread about somebody looking to jump into D2, and somebody who responded asking why D1 was even being worked on. I'd say my post was on topic.
