I disagree.  core isn't a concept that should be binned into.  control flow, 
call graph, register, arm, alias, allocation, attribute, builtin, type, eval, 
jit, symbol, file, floating point, pass, block, stack, constant, hash, map, 
range, memory, debug, dump, elf, dwarf, operator, value, vector, declarations, 
int, statements, object, storage, expressions, frame, error, values, mapping, 
the list is endless. core is like a bin for important, functions that begin 
with a, functions I wrote, big functions, functions implemented with templates, 
trivial functions, hard to grasp concepts, simple things, things added in the 
last year, old things, fun things, extra things, useful thing, unsorted things, 
often used things, and so on…  core goes in exactly the wrong long term 
direction.
