Because when using a lower level debugger and asking for a stack dump, you can more
easily see where your app code ends and the OS code begins (i.e. you see a debug
symbol for "StarterPalmMain" but not for "PilotMain"). It's not necessary to follow
this convention; you can just as easily put the code right there in PilotMain.

Because it's not used. The comment is one way of avoiding an unused-variable warning
during compilation. Another way is to use: #pragma unused(variables)
