I did a 360 once in the pattern at a class D airport.
That's why I contend that Class D stands for "D'oh!", and is the most

Sorry, Tim -- that came out sounding like I thought you were stupid
for making a 360 in the pattern. That's NOT what I meant -- I only
mean that Class D is a dangerous place, thanks to us relying on guys
in a tower with binoculars for spacing, and controllers relying on
guys in airplanes who don't know where the heck they really are.
I agree completely with your rationale for doing what you had to do.
