We're not, no. We're talking about the reasons given to justify the
claim that a pseudo-insn emitted by the compiler is not "suspicious".
To say those reasons are "sound" is to say that my initial objection
to the pseudo-insn was answered by the explanation proffered and is
now obviously invalid. I think it's a matter of further discussion,
not that it is, at this point, obviously valid.
(As it turns out, my objection was valid, at least in part. A small
number of the problematic assumptions are now, apparently, no longer
being emitted.)
