Comment:

 "(Compiling command-line code to object code is probably not worth it.)"

 a. When it is the only possible way to use unboxed tuples interactively,
 etc.

 b. Sometimes I want the convenience of a REPL when testing expressions
 that have quite large running time and it's a nuisance to put them in a
 file and compile (possibly with optimizations), repeatedly, just to make
 them run fast enough.

 So I think the possibility to do so is worth it as a user, assuming it
 isn't too difficult to implement.
