Concurring opinion to not change this.
Worst case is some valid programs don't compile.
Don't add needless abstraction for situations you don't have.

If you have programs that you want to compile,
just share the relevant code and either we'd start arguing about how to
make that code better, or just commit the macro patch.

Thanks,
