D's garbage collector can be disabled, so would you mind elaborating?

Not using the GC is rather easy, there are plenty of mitigation methods. Not using the D runtime is much more involved. Not linking with the D runtime is a more hardcore endeavour.

Yes and then you can't use most of the nice features of D. Forget about libraries.
