 i am aware of the uses of stacks

i generally try to use stacks and even registers, it's one of the things i loved about the m68k architecture, so many registers you didn't even need a stack to make many calls, a large number of the improvements that have occurred in the Go compiler output have been achieved through more use of registers, they are the fastest memory in a computer and it's insane how a register-poor architecture like intel has come to dominate, just a reflection of how much abstraction and the bloat it causes is the norm
