how do you feel about the tendency to call compilers whose output is not assembly language "transpilers"

alright those were all easy let's do a fun one. what optimization passes do you think are most dangerous? i'm not referring to how they interact with a buggy program, because that would vary based on the program, i mean the compiler code itself. which aggressive optimizations are most likely to accidentally generate incorrect code because they're hella complicated/old/unmaintained/no one sane ever uses them? and don't tell me none or i'll ask for a formal proof :v:

if you feel the need for typedef you probably need to make a class
