And gain what? You force everyone to change their code for essentially zero
benefit.

- Jonathan M Davis

It's not zero benefit, although it may seem like that over a small period of time, it's over an extended period that inconsistencies can become a very significant cause of productivity loss. I'd rather fix up my old code, and I know how horrible that is especially for production code that is in use, it's just not fun, but if language stability was more important to me than productivity, I would not have made the very painful move from C/C++ to D.
