I feel there is a lack of resources/documentation on array definitions. I cannot believe the official documentation tries to explain how D handles arrays without defining an array a single time.

Could you provide information on what you are looking for. The document states,

"Dynamic arrays consist of a length and a pointer to the array data. Multiple dynamic arrays can share all or parts of the array data."

We have started using the same terminology as Go and are now formally calling them slices, but still use array casually.

I can agree that "point and length" doesn't have a connection with semantics and use, but that is what they are. (The runtime maintains a block of memory somewhere that the slice points to)
