J'aurai tendance à penser qu'avoir des compilateurs qui évaluent leurs
arguments dans des sens différents est plus une force qu'une
faiblesse. Cela permet de détecter des bogues (car il est raisonnable
d'estimer que tout code va être testé sur les deux compilateurs).
J'ai trouvé une fois dans mon code un bogue car j'évaluait mentalement
de gauche à droite et le compilateur de droite à gauche. Ce jour j'ai
compris l'utilité d'évaluer dans un ordre que je trouvais auparavant
"anti-intuitif".
