"was great", implying you are conceding it now has faults but are suggesting this is only because it does more than Go does.. I'll let that stand for the furtherance of this conversation but I do disagree with your assertion...

"current compiler is eminently usable", didn't you just concede half a sentence ago that it is now full of bugs?

Well we're not in court. I simply meant to say that it takes longer to write a compiler for a larger language, and that today the D compiler is of good quality.
