D's slices are "fat pointers": In D's case, that translates to a pointer

Agreed. Pointers are fundamental features of CPUs.

That is not correct. Slices are designed by a C expert to prevent
horrible bugs caused by C experts. Most C experts use slices very happily.

That is an old thought. Today, we see that no matter how experienced,
every person needs and appreciates help to prevent bugs. There are many
cases of bugs killing people, jeopardizing expensive projects, loss of
personal information, etc.
