What are the pointlessly long names in the CIL ( Common Intermediate Language - CLR assembly )? Most of them are ADD, MUL, DUP, BGT, CALL, LDC.I4, and the like.
There are a few localloc, tailcall, volatile, and such but you don’t use them much.
Things like LDC.I4 ( load 32 bit integer ) have companions like LDC.I8 and LDC.R8 that add a lot of symmetry and clarity without adding too much bulk ( in my view ).
