@ireneista something we did not notice until we had to look back at tools such as this is that we've collectively made tremendous progress in... "binutils"
borland's toolchain is built around extending OMF (Object Module Format) which dates back to *8-bit* machines
see also: rust and modern c++ hairballs regularly running into msvc link.exe limitations, or thephd.dev spending all that effort trying to make #embed work, which we didn't understand at all until we tried to convert a binary file into an object file for something that didn't use ELF (wasm iirc?)
