Thought it was obfuscated C code, then I realized it’s a tree or something

Challenge issued.

I wouldn't be surprised if someone comes up with obfuscated C code that looks like a christmas tree and prints out wishes by the end of the day/season.

Merry Christmas!

I'll admit it does look a bit like an IOCCC [0] entry. Can someone please do it for us?

Let's ask an LLM as a test!

ChatGPT did much better but I cannot paste it into this text box no matter how many times I try with different formatting to get the white space preserved. chatGPT also could not figure out how to format it for pasting here.

I did recently try to use an LLM to make a twinkling christmas tree quine in the style of qlobe. It didn’t get close, maybe next year!

Exactly, looks like Perl code to me. :)
