It seems this is not the case. Can anyone explain why? It seems
to be an arbitrary limitation.
example:

This is essentially an arbitrary restriction. The basic reason is
if a function is compiled (even just for CTFE), it ends up in the
object files, and you've asked for only betterC functions to end
up in the object files.
