Rofl but what does it even compile down to? I could see a program that just concatenates and prints every string included in its source code

Fun fact: In a hilarious misuse of the script interpreter mechanism, on Linux (and similar operating systems), if you put
as the first line of a file and make it executable, it’ll dump itself to the current output channel when called by name.
Which is basically what you’re describing.
See also: Perl, which will try to interpret almost anything as legitimate code if you don’t tell it not to.
