Would you realistically have advised me to merge it?

Not at this time, no, but I also wouldn't advise you to close it and tell us to stop trying if you were actually open to a chance.

You closed that and posted this at about the same time:

"I'm not going to debate this further"

"What's important is that autodecoding is here to stay - there's no realistic way to eliminate it from D."


So, what do you seriously expect us to think? We had a migration plan and enough excitement to start working on the code, then within about 15 minutes of each other, you close the study PR and post that the discussion is over and your mistake is here to stay.

I'm not sure who "all" is but that's beside the point.


This sentence makes me pretty mad too. This topic has come up many times and nobody, NOBODY, with the exception of yourself agrees with the current behavior anymore. It is a very frequently asked question among new users, and we have no real justification because there is no technical merit to it.
