What does "Write Yourself a Scheme in 48 Hours" produce? From OP I'm guessing it's something less than (73% of) R7RS.

The reason it's only 73% is because I prioritized fun stuff like self hosting and platform binaries. I think finishing off the standards would only take a few more hours (except eval which I don't plan to do).
That wasn't a dig at you, I was just genuinely wondering what Write Yourself produces.
Yeah, I didn't take it that way, just thought it was worth clarifying that this isn't a case of AI hitting a wall or anything like that, I just went down other rabbit holes.
