Based on those two web pages it appears that the name for a dynamic array <reference?> in D is "slice". That is, anytime you have a dynamic array (even a null reference version) it is called a slice. Is that correct?
Not exactly, but basically. read this for a bit more info https://dlang.org/d-array-article.html
A slice is a bit more general than a dynamic array. You can slice into a static array, or any buffer really. The slice just also acts as a dynamic array and can create one on-demand if you append to it, and also slices are how D represents the underlying dynamic arrays to user code.
