Unfortunately, there is still one option missing: please! do just as
told!

I don't see the problem. If I wanted to implement human beings, physical
laws, an universe and an operating system inside a missing text editor
inside a Lisp interpreter on a C compiler I'm pretty sure I would add 1200
options.

That's a great summary. Thank you.

Is the universe free as in the GNU General Multiverse License?

I think it's CC-BY-ND. Still waiting on word from the content creator.

Ah! I think I know why compile binaries with gcc are so slow. Because
they first found the answer: GNU Public Licence. Then they said: here is
the answer! Uh! THAT??? But answer to what? Hence now gcc embeds code to
find the question the GPL is the answer for.

I'm not sure if I should take it as a joke. You can never know what's going
to be the next move of our saviors the Fat Software Foundation.

10 years ago the gcc manual was bigger than kenc source.

take your pick. learn about a neat compiler or read the gcc manual.

speaking of 'free':

"This is the license of the original implementation of the JSON data
interchange format. This license uses the Expat license as a base, but
adds a clause mandating: “The Software shall be used for Good, not
Evil.” This is a restriction on usage and thus conflicts with freedom
0. The restriction might be unenforcible, but we cannot presume that.
Thus, the license is nonfree."

Anyway, I still love emacs.
Maybe I'm too young?!

Too young an Acme user perhaps! ☺
