I don't understand your equivalence between .ily and .h files. The

a) just like .h files, .ily files can't be passed directly to a compiler for compilation.

b) who says .h files don't produce executable code? They often contain code, sometimes entire functions.

I understand the equivalence exactly - it's what you DO to the file.

You're thinking "what you *should* put in the file". Since when have people done what they *should*?
