I can't decide if this is brilliant or terrifying.

This is why D doesn't have AST macros, a preprocessor, and makes operator overloading difficult for any purpose other than arithmetic.

Programmers can (and do) still create DSLs in D by using string mixins and CTFE.

Fairly mundane. You could do most of it in C89 with cpp.
