Source code?

The information it conveys can always be maximized if we can replay it as when it was originally typed, and also add documentation that is text in static and replayable versions in the same HTML file.
Except that the density of that information relative to time is now way too low to be worth anyone's time.
When you start writing an OS you do the minimum possible to get the x86 processor in a usable state, then you try to get as far away from it as possible.

That's two big fallacies there.
- You assume that a single property has to be decisive.
- You assume that everything found on the internet is good for you.
