ocornut's own bulletpoints are incoherent. He can call it whatever he wants, it doesn't mean it's meaningful. The fact that he's designed a retained mode library with an immediate mode API doesn't mean that it doesn't have literally the same limitations, because he doesn't expose the abstractions to you to actually do meaningful retained work. I don't care what made up paradigm someone else has invented. Anyone who was doing immediate mode graphics programming before shader based pipelines knows exactly what it is, because you would have used the APIs by standards organizations themselves.
