Can the improved parsing be added to D? (It would need to be

If I am correct there is open PR that set DMD to use C’s
primitives for literals parsing. So, for compiler itself we
don’t need Mir.
That's not correct for the targets that use Digital Mars C.
I thought that DMD is compiled with LDC for release builds, isn't
it?
If you mean Phobos - one can use Mir instead.
These functions in Phobos would make a great advertisement for
Mir.
How this possible? Having them in Mir is already a great
advertisement for Mir and not having them in Phobos is an even
more great advertisement for Mir.
