D has native support for calling Objective-C. No need to integrate with the Objective-C runtime directly. Everything is written using familiar D syntax. No extra overhead compared to Objective-C. The generated D code is the same as the Objective-C compiler would generate.

Although it's a bit out of the etiquete to post tangents like this, I find it really cool that D has such native support and will be reading more about it because you shared. So thanks.
I don’t think it’s out of line. Oftentimes comments like this do come with jabs at the language being discussed, but this one was pleasantly free of snark. It makes me more curious about D.
