> What does a transpiler have? What is the common factor between all transpilers? High to high translation. Limited lowering. > Who decides on this layering of which languages are higher level or lower level? You know it when you see it. Who decides what makes a book a 'horror book'? There's no authority on that either. You know it when you see it. > C2Rust doesn't call itself a transpiler, it calls itself a translator. Yes a translator - a translating compiler - a transpiler. > This term seems completely useless to me. Not sure why the term seems to wind people up so much - it just add a little extra info.
