It's like politician who are like, "you oppose mass surveillance ? Surely you want children to die !". DIP25 and DIP1000 are addressing a real problem. They do it in a clumsy way. Specifically, DIP25 do it in a way that actaully was tried before with type qualifier ( inout ) and, long story short: http://forum.dlang.org/post/neqr75$1pbl$1@digitalmars.com . Now you can chose to wage an exhaustion war until everybody who remains either agrees or don't care to fight anymore. That won't make it a good idea, but it'll look like one. |
