Deductive reasoning leads to two possible options:

Personally I'd just go for C - that way I can just distribute a binary

It may do. But there's nothing wrong with making it as hard as possible
to do so. Most people have better things to do than try to reverse
engineer a piece of code.

Even Zend knows it's pointless to encode PHP. When you type decode
