I totally understand your point - Astra doesn’t do register allocation or full parsing, so strictly speaking, it’s not a compiler in the traditional sense.
I used the term "compiler" because for many developers, it’s strongly associated with "turning source code into a single binary."
That’s what Astra does at a practical level - even if it's technically just bundling and embedding into a node executable using SEA and postject.
