It seems like 'templates' are the 'Achilles heel' of D.
Without starting a flame war, has D gotten to the point where

Does D now require 'deep' memory into layers of history and
workarounds?
Is D a general purpose language, suitable for Application
Programming, or does it have a more limited scope?
Can you elaborate?
D is a general purpose language
You can write any program without using any templates
So what’s the point?
