Where are you getting the crazy idea that the GC is the only non-syntactic improvement D has vs C/C++? Additionally, you keep implying that the syntactic improvements are unimportant, or at least insignificant. Rediculous. Even if the GC were the only non-syntactic improvement and all the other changes were syntax (which isn't even true anyway), the syntax alone would absolutely be a worthwhile improvement over C or C++.
