Oh, I really gotta learn this language.... Almost everything I hear about it I like. It seems like "not recompiling already compiled code" should have made sense to compiler authors decades ago. It feels like the first modern programming language ever....

What are you talking about? It did, since other languages has had that feature for literal decades.

It's usually done at the build system, not compiler level. In addition, it becomes more complicated when you talk about changing compiler options, and near useless when using LTO.

Visual Studio 6.0 from 1998 had (and still does) an option like that (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...=vs.60%29.aspx, https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...=vs.60%29.aspx)

This can only be sarcasm? Very hard to tell when rust people are serious though (see their code of conduct for an example). Make literally was doing that decades ago...
