Why, then, is Rust called "Rust"? "C++" was chosen to signal that it's
an improvement of C. "D++" would mean an improvement of D. If D is

This thread is absurd and leads nowhere.
Rust has its own name, they don't have to follow any idea.
D has chosen to use the naming scheme of C and as such it should be
honest and use D++ because that's what D is: An expanded version of the
former language.
D was originally called Mars.
No the community choose to call it D, we're not renaming.
