Well, because that wouldn’t match the design being implemented there. For an assembly-like language, you don’t want to factor that way. For other purposes a separate ADT would make a lot of sense, of course. In any case, I was only pointing to this for the implementation of individual operators, not necessarily for the module as a whole.
