I read about "override" when I first got into D way back before D1.0 and thought it sounded great. Then I promptly forgot about it since the compiler never complained, and I haven't even thought to use it since. I suspect I'm not the only one that's happened to. Therefore, if there's potential benefit to be gained from "override" (and I believe that there is), then I don't think we're actually *getting* much of that benefit as things currently are. Although, as far as whether or not that benefit is worth the bother of it being required, well, I haven't given any thought to that in a long time, so I'm really not sure either way, ATM.
