on the point of the GC being a good thing to have, this is true, but not when your main objective is to replace C++, C++ key advantage being RAII deterministic manual memory management You cant replace C++ with GC language, even 10 years ag

As far as I know D's original design strategy, was to be a simpler to use C++ with a GC, but with the same expressive power Over time, this proved to be a bad strategy, C++ key strength became RAII (deterministic memory management), so

Well, D have a GC, and by design cannot have a GC with good performance, because of its complex mutable object system OCaml, can achieve good GC performance because its immutable by default D by design, will never outperform OCaml, at least
