Please provide the proof that you've used to make the assertion that it is
hard to optimise at the intermediate representation level.
In addition, you've said this problem is widespread. I've asked before and
will ask again: please provide links to 10 different cases where it is visible
or was fixed/worked around in existing, open source codebases. You should have
no problem finding at least 3.
I'm asking this so you realise that you may be making unfounded claims. If you
want to argue that it must be so, prove it. Otherwise, please rephrase your
statements to indicate that the problem may not exist at all, except in your
one case.
