I don't buy the education angle.

If you're not learning to code, then you want efficient code, so the comments are wasted bytes (ok, not a huge expense, but still).

If you are learning to code, or just want to understand how this code works, then asking an LLM is going to get a lot better result. LLMs are fantastic tutors. Endlessly patient, go down any rabbit hole with you, will continue explaining a concept until you get it, etc. I think they're going to revolutionise education, especially for practical subjects like coding.

Respect to the author for trying to educate, though.

Is there any modern compiler where the output code has anything to do with the comments in the source?
