If I understand it well this patch will disable not only the fpc

Why would we want to disable the standard Pascal solution?
Why not disable the Borland "result" extention?
TP mode can be handled differently from the other modes, never affected by
this option. But this should be mentioned in the documentation, else some
people may wonder why the option doesn't work in their legacy code.
I wasn't talking about legacy code. I wasn't talking about TP mode either.
I was talking about new code. Why not disable the "result" extension?
Delphi is legacy anyway so there is no need anymore to promote its
flaws.
To be clear: I am not proposing disabling the "result" extension. I'm just
applying the same reasoning.
