"Byte-code compilation is an underdocumented — and in the case of the recent lexical binding updates, undocumented — part of Emacs"

"People do not write byte-code; that job is left to the byte compiler. But we provide a disassembler to satisfy a cat-like curiosity."

If I was an emacs fan I'd be weary of this. What happens if the devs are hit by busses? What happens to emacs? No documentation means very little stability.
