Were I to design a computer (both HW & SW), the founding principle should be compatibility with legacy code at no expense of performance or user effort.

Stuff like this gives me hope that I'm not merely wet-dreaming.

did you mean to say "wet"-dreaming in this context? Seems an odd addition to simply "dreaming"
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/wet_dream

    An exciting fantasy; a very appealing, ideal thing, person, or state of affairs.
"An erotic dream bringing the sleeper to orgasm" - this was what I was confused about.
Nah, the alternative that popped in my mind was "phantasizing", so I guess my wording aligns with my feelings. Whether these feelings are healthy is another discussion :D
