If that is indeed the answer (and I don’t think it is), perhaps try to answer the question “why isn’t there a similar movement for D?”

Because we have a movement called "Make the D compiler compatible with all C++ code" https://wiki.dlang.org/Calypso

Why should you rewrite good software? D can call C libraries. With DPP you can even use C macros in D code. D has some interoperability with C++ so now you have access to some C++ libs. But wait there is more. D can interop with python and R. And there was a person that talked about C# interop.
