Yes, you are right! But the Wikipedia article talks about many
different techniques. It talks about storing subroutine addresses into
arrays and having the system execute code by calling each of those
addresses in turn, like a byte-code interpreter. That's not what
Factor does because indirectly

Apparently the JIT for the interactive non-optimizing compiler generates
subroutine threaded code with some inlining.
I wouldn't call it a compiler optimization; maybe an interpreter
optimization or a simple compiling
Hello!
Does Factor use threaded code in any way?
