I think it's just the "are optimized for all targets" bit that's
not correct. Would you agree with "Self-recursion tail call
optimization happen regardless of presence of sibcall patterns"?
(That's what I saw.)
If you don't agree, why not (as in "how comes that a sibcall
pattern matter in your case")?
