I don't think this is a fundamental limitation of tools, but a
consequence of language design.
I also think that features that makes it difficult to write programs
that analyze the semantics also makes it difficult for humans to
understand the code and verify the correctness of the code.
Programming languages are in general still quite primitive (not specific
to D), they still rely on convention rather than formalisms.

That's a very odd statement to make about programming languages in general.
