Reducing bureaucracy is not the same as cutting science funding.
not liking syntax is not enough reason not to use a language. It takes a few days to get over the unfamiliarity in syntax. concepts are much harder to learn.

The linked article has nothing to do with the discussion here. You are just projecting something else here.
Owning a gas station is on the ... Truck Driver -- Gas Station -- Motel .. spectrum for blue collar immigrants from the subcontinent.
I might spend $1500 on my 12 year old car (which is "only" worth 4200 according to KBB), instead of spending lot more money to get a different used car with unknown issues or a hefty monthly payment.
This specific article talks about using No GC aka "betterC".
D has GC by default; the use of GC is convenient and mainstream as most popular languages show - Java/C#/Python etc. What D gives is the unique ability to do No GC programming for the cases where GC is not desirable. Very few languages offer this capability.

* Cross-compiling is a first-class use case
* Zig Build system
Also, IMO Zig has some of the most exciting WASM related stuff going on in my limited experience as an outsider (to WASM). Following Zig's development of WASM capabilities has taught me more things with less confusion.
