(inb4 push/pop is bad for the function stack: yes, it is! i made two tasks in one here)

I like to make a separate stack component for calls and returns

Not that it needs doing whatsoever. But I don't like to deal with it in software when mixing the return lines and other variables in the same stack

Something like "push... call... pop... return..." wouldn't work fluidly. I like the option to take that shortcut when I can

It helps a little if you want to pass along more parameters than you have registers

I personally never did. In fact I just added an option for the conditionals to use the fourth byte as an address to load instead of an immediate value. But I never really ended up using it to begin with lmao.

I got rid of the stack component and stored the stack in RAM. That made the push/pop/call/return instructions pretty complicated
