What are the things that you think will be simplified? I thought
that D had some of the same issues about breaking backward
compatibility that C++ had.
Within D, there is a bit smaller and cleaner language
struggling to get out!
Ha, one of my favorite Stroustrup quotes about C++!
One of the reasons I like the betterC switch is that it does
simplify the language, perhaps too much, but preserves some of
the best parts of D, like metaprogramming and modules.
