C++ offshoot is crazy lmao. Wrapper is generous enough.

Idk why people make such a big deal of Python using C under the hood. As far as I'm concerned, C uses ASM under the hood so wouldn't that make C a ASM wrapper as much as Python is a C wrapper?

Modern compilers are a sight to behold, being able to automagically optimize your code for, strip unused pieces etc. etc. They are basically magic as far as I am concerned
