So let's build the whole system with -O0 and we can throw away most of compilers and half of debuggers, which are all needlessly complex and prone to faults due to -O2.

I am aware of it, I have spent a lot of time making tools prelink compatible. But even compilers have very complex parts for negligible gains. > I just hope you are not saying that there is a doubt there are > disadvantages.
