Andrei suggested posting more widely.
I was just writing some R code yesterday after playing around
with D for a couple weeks. I accomplished more in an afternoon
of R coding than I think I had in like a month's worth of
playing around with D. The same is true for python.
As someone who uses both D and Python every day, I find that -
once you are proficient in both - initial productivity is higher
in Python and then D starts to overtake as a project gets larger
and/or has stricter requirements. I hope never to have to write
anything longer than a thousand lines in Python ever again.
