Evidently you've dismissed all of my posts in this thread on
that topic :-)
As you dismissed all points in favor of bytecode. Such as it
being a standardized AST representation for multiple languages.
CLI is all about that, which is reflected in its name. LLVM is
used almost exclusively for that purpose (clang is great).
Not advocating bytecode here but you claiming it is completely
useless is so D-ish :).
