You're not understanding my point unfortunately. I never said you can't turn it off. I said if you do, and any of your dependencies expect it to be on, then you have a problem. (Yes, I have tried D. That's how I know this.)

Ohhh, fair enough, yeah I see what you're saying.

Yeah you're boned in that case I think and that's a real problem that can pop up if you want full @nogc

EDIT: Maybe not based on Max's comment

D-Plug (Audio FX plugins) is one example of having to build up a dependency stack of @nogc compatible deps, a lot of that is in-house stuff.

Not impossible but it's a commitment, at which point you may as well use something else unless you REALLY want to use D, for sure.

That's exactly the issue. Having to reinvent every wheel you need just isn't a selling point.

If you actually turn it off (as in GC.disable()) they won't know either way, it's just a memory allocator to them.
