In D we have a bit of a conceptual double standard within the number community. I have to remember these rules when I'm creating something, not just when I'm debugging it. As often as D may have caught a construction mistake specifically related to floats in my code, 10x more so it's produced NaN's where I intended a number, because I forgot about the double standard when adding a field or creating a variable.
I'd rather have a 100 easy to find bugs than 1 unnoticed one that went out in the field.
A C++ guy might not think twice about this because he's used to having to default values all the time (IDK, I'm not that guy),
Only if a default constructor is defined for the type, which it often is not, and you'll get garbage for a default initialization.
