Indeed.
Unfortunately, it's often the standard library which makes the
difference between a nice language, and a nice useful language.
D is a great language not only because of the many great
decisions you made when designing the

The main issue for me in game development with D is the

That's why I don't think C++ will be soon replaced by Rust, D, etc
Maybe in a few years, but obviously not right now...

IMHO, implementing a EP-to-D source code converter was
probably more risky than simply extending an existing Pascal
Compiler in that case.
Risc is in the eye of the beholder ;-)
Indeed :)
But that doesn't mean I'm completely wrong.
I also enjoy A LOT implementing minimalistic transpilers
