Advantages: The current checks for miscompilation on startup would be obsolete, and the programmer enum and related variables would not be needed anymore either. Disadvantages: It will be a lot more difficult to blacklist certain actions based on the programmer (because that action is not supported) and that may require conversion of some error avoidance paths to error recovery paths.
