Well in Swift, there is no problem .. at all.
Why is it a problem in D then? (and I mean technically).
What about the increment operator `++` ?
Remember, that a one of the design goals of Swift was to NOT

Personally, I've never liked ++ and -- (and I have for many
years, wrote them out the way Swift now requires.).
So for me, Swift does exactly what I want here ;-)
