Regarding the new compiler, I'd be curious to know where are the

One of the primary reasons, as I understand it, for RS needing to
have spent time on the compiler was for maintainability. And I
think the results of that is very, very obvious. We have
multiple new targets in an amazingly short amount of time.
This seems like propaganda to me.
Maintainability of the compiler is not something you can call a
feature to advertise. I admit that the compiler is faster to
compile and maintainability can bring advantages.
Maintainability is not a new feature. But it does lead to good
things. I'm not sure why that's propaganda...
It's just not a "feature" you can put on a glossy and have people say
"Wow that's great!" like you can with the RAD features, etc.
It's pretty much a must have, and a nice to have but not a "feature"
in that sense
