Hi!
Yeah, certainly compiler smarts can remove many bounds checks (in particular for small deltas, as you mention), hoist them, and so forth. Maybe even most of them in theory?
Still, there are common patterns like pointer-chasing in linked list traversal where you just keep getting an unknown i64 pointer, that you just need to bounds check...
