He doesn't argue against garbage collection.
Well, can you state what he does argue against?
And D is one of the few languages that can be used without
garbage collection, so it can be a non-garbage collected
language and can be used as such.
Wouldn't C++ or Rust, with their smart pointers, be a better
choice for someone who wants to use a compiles-to-object-code
language, but can't suffer any garbage collector delays?
