While i tend to code that way it is not as pretty in C++ as it looks on paper when you use namespaces.

namespace ns {
  struct S {
    void b();

  void b(S s);
}

auto s = ns::S;
s.b() // fine
ns::b(s) // uh..

It gets much worse when S is somewhere deep in many namespaces.
ADL helps but it is also unreliable. I think D doesn't have this issue.

And... at the end of the article he also mentions this.
