And there's another advantage I neglected to mention - it allows DMDFE

I don't think Nick's argument is particularly compelling,
Granted, it isn't a very big technical/legal argument, but I don't think
those are the only important criteria. The thing is, D's licensing
overall (DMDFE/DMDBE/LDC/GDC/Phobos) is kinda complicated. So any
simplification, as long as it doesn't restrict anyone, is a net
improvement, even if it isn't earth-shattering.
but the DDMD
<-> Phobos connection definitely makes the change very worthwhile in my
opinion.
Yea, I agree too, I hadn't thought of that one either.
