This kind of attitude "we need big fat bullshit like Java and
heavy use of OO and idioms and EH and all that other crap" is
broken and false. And you have no way to prove that Python for
example wouldn't scale for large projects; its main fault is
that the default implementation is rather slow, but it's not
pretty much missing anything required for a large project.
BTW, look at Scala for another language that's designed for large
scale programming (as its name implies). Scala is a very good
design, some even think it's the Java killer. But I think it's
even more complex than D.
