What I mean is: instead of having a “firewall” in the compiler, is there a way to interpret pre-2024 code such that it has correct but conservative Leak bounds? Then there would be more confidence that, if a mixed-edition program type-checks, then it’s correct.

It took me a minute, but the firewall is talking about the reverse direction of preventing post-2024 code without Leak being used in pre-2024 code.
