There is nothing theoretical about this, I am only concerned

One usually don't judge a system level language based on its
libraries. System level usage of the same system level language
can be very different because people use different core
libraries. So there is essentially no reason to complain about
D's libraries.
If you look for system level programming you also essentially
agree to writing the libraries you need or create bindings to
whatever system you intend to build for. I am not interested
in Phobos, I am not fond of it and I don't focus on it since I
don't have to use it. I am interested in the language/runtime,
not libraries which I understand that I have to do on my own.
Ah, then a lot of your attitudes start making sense. But then you
shouldn't comment on D's usability in the real world.
