It can, but you have to know what you’re doing and you have to know it very well.

Looking at the opposite extreme, the guy that originally wrote the windows task manager (the thing that popped put when you pressed ctrl+alt+canc) posted a video about cloning the windows basic text editor in a 3kb binary: https://youtu.be/OG91c7xsNMc

Needless to say, the guy knows what he’s doing.
