This may be a case of Risk homeostasis:

But maybe it's mostly a matter of getting used to D. Once you get used to a 
safer language, you want even more and something better. You want the frosting 
too on your cake :-) And probably D is not the end of the line in the evolution 
of C-derived languages. There is space for improvements, like having notnull 
reference types, typestates, etc. For example, it will be interesting to see 
where the Rust language goes.
