Suggest substitution of the phrase iself-evident[/i] with obvious as former means evident without proof or reasoning with the latter meaning easily discovered, seen, or understood; readily perceived by the eye or the intellect. There is reasoning for difference of compiler and interpreter but to paraphrase Pierre de Fermat, there is not enough room here.
Annoying, aren't I?
