Reminds me a bit of "Who Says C is Simple?" written by the people who wrote a C parser & analyser in OCaml (CIL):

People who don't know what "simple" means and confuse it with "easy".

"Easy" things almost always lead to astonishing complexity.
Also it's easy to see just how complex C is: Have a look at a formal description of it! (And compare to a truly simple language like e.g. LISP).

In contrast some basic Lambda calculus language semantics fit 0.5 of a page in K.

What in the world…!!
It’s in the GCC section so I assume it’s some kind of lambda-function-like compiler extension? That allows jumping between bodies of two different functions…!
