What I don't understand is why the C++ communities doesn't just adopt D as a replacement and finish. While D is certainly not Ada it is for sure what C++ should be.

In both cases C++ and D, neither "got it" in terms of the importance of types and how they improve the overall contracts in all software development and increase its robustness in ways the current cruches they add can not.

There just is not imperative language outside Ada that has understood the types and compile type checks for types is the real magic for efficiently implemented robust software.
