I had the same question why the loop iterator uses index rather than loop* when I read this at the first time. I guess the design of processing loops allows its user to update or even delete the folllowing loops to be visited. For example, when the user does some tricks on one loop, then it duplicates the loop and its children to somewhere and then removes the loop and its children, when iterating onto its children later, the "index" way will check its validity by get_loop at that point, but the "loop *" way will have some recorded pointers to become dangling, can't do the validity check on itself, seems to need a side linear search to ensure the validity. > There's still the to_visit reserve which needs a bound on > the number of loops for efficiency reasons. > Yes, I still keep the fn in the updated version. >> So I add one optional argument loop_p root and update the >> visiting codes accordingly.

Comparing with v1, it does: - Unify one single
