For the code:
void test()
{
int i = i + 5;

D reports:
test.d(4): Error: undefined identifier i
Yes, which by your "people will toss something in to shut the compiler up"
reasoning will then cause people to turn that into this "to shut the
compiler up":
void test()
{
int i;
i = i + 5;
}
Which the D compiler will be perfectly happy with even though it's probably
wrong.
I see no reason why people would do that. It doesn't save typing, it isn't
convenient, etc.
