This reminds me of coding with AI where slightly changing the prompt gives you different code and you don't really understand why but you use it anyway. In this case it's not even the compiler that's adding the incorrect instructions - it's the linker. Someday we'll just trust the AI to spit out working code the same way we assume that the C toolchain produces reasonable assembler. And when it doesn't it's remarkable enough to warrant a blog post and HN discussion.
