Yes, the complexity of C++ comes often in the form of what you 
are not allowed to do, but which makes perfect sense to a human. 
So as a programmer you have to think like the C++ compiler rather 
than the compiler trying to follow "human logic". And that is 
rather annoying.

I wish you would streamline template definitions even more in D, 
though.
