Agreed. That it’s even plausible is a sad state of affairs.
It’s no less bat shit crazy than what we do have sources for.

Good thing we have so many options!
Like riding a motorcycle in a tee shirt and shorts.
Fuck C and it’s lazy shit pointer arithmetic array indexing shortcut. I.e. you just add the index × size(t) to the array pointer.
Bounds checking? We’ve heard of it.
Going from three classes (low, middle, upper) down to two (low, upper) sounds like progress.
