I thought `inline` was in C99, which would mean that it's been required
in C for over 26 years old—it's older than some of my colleagues. What
compilers are people using in 2026 that don't know about `inline`? Or
more importantly, what platforms are people using in 2026 that lack a
usable compiler with at least C99?
