Why is this bad? I am tired of the garbage collection thing.

If you make extensions for R/Tcl/Lisps for computations, plotting, abstract mathematics,

why the Garbage collection is bad?

You have native performance!

The only complaint is that D might think of adding some of the ergonomics of ML-family of languages. But it has its opinion (like Lisps) and I respect that.

Ergonomics and possibly safety could be goals.
