All tests passed successfully, including an extra addition that shaved
another 5kb off the compiler! Now the hard part... writing that
whitepaper for everyone, since I think this is one of those times where
it will be necessary.
But if anyone wants to analyse and test it out before I make a merge
request, here it is:

In terms of size, it reduces the compiler size on x86_64-win64 by about
0.5%, but what will be interesting to hear feedback on is execution
speed, since it's removing redundant code and reducing the number of
pointer deallocations.
