There's some work predating it, but it was very much undeployed before PIX let out the genie out, because even the early NAT work notes it might be problematic even in short term.

As sibling comments mentioned, someone's you want to enforce things. Also consider it a way to avoid hidden bugs, similar to "The server chose violence" [1] [2] as well as how much Postel's law held back interoperability

Early on (Model S being new) they used to do a lot of "hypercare" as some corps call it, short of white glove service, to keep customers happy and essentially advertising their brand. I suspect a lot of reputation from then helped

Linux kernel is also one of the few that do not use C ABI as entry point for user programs at all. As for C compiler presence in POSIX, only existence of C-accessible APIs with specific structure are mandated, C compiler is optional just li

MCL crashing on startup, whether 68k or PPC versions, have yet to test 68k on popular ppc mac emulators. I expect that running MCL on QEMU emulating PPC Mac running MacOS 8 or 9 should work, however.
