I do agree it's not intuitive for an initializer, especially
when:

Thank you for getting back to me, that's where my train of
thought was going. While I know it's not _really_ valid to say
"this other language does it," my experience does hail from
elsewhere where this would be perfectly legal.
I'm sure there's a bug filed somewhere on this...
Is this bug worthy? I can search for one and comment and/or
create one if I can't find one.
auto d = new Dog;
Animal a = d;
writefln("%x, %x", cast(void*)d, cast(void*)a); // prints 2
different addresses
That's also an interesting observation.
