If we are on this topic then we need to discuss a genetically modified gut microbiota. We do not need to edit genetically ourselves for some pityful vitamins. Microbiota could give us all we want. It could enable us to digest plastic, so we

Maybe it is me, but it seems more like a parody showing how not to do things. I believe the easiest way to do it is something like: mypoint.coords().map(|x| x * x).sum().sqrt() Instead there are dozens of lines of code adding some

Just updating a compiler could break workflows for historical versions of the code. It is unavoidable. But it is easier with build flags if you use VCS: these flags could be different for different versions.
