I've quickly tried to detect active discovery in SCEV but it wasn't as easy as I thought. > Are we looking to fix this in this release? I think the full evaluation has to wait for stage1 because of that recursion issue. I'm also sure we're going to need ways to _not_ do this, so maybe a clearer separation in the API is warranted. As I see it when you call range_of_expr without context you get the same result as if using the global range query so maybe it should be a different API from the start (the one that is now without context) and range_of_expr without context using a conservative default (the definition point).
