  1. This sort of thing is a GREAT way to learn about something; i.e. RiskV and emulation. Just working through the examples in a training course will never make you think and understand to the depth that something like this will. Yes, the final result is utterly futile, but the process to get there is amazing, rewarding and really beneficial to the person who did this. In the early 1990's, I once wrote a standard C library for 16 bit Small-C in Small-C and assembler and I learned so much thereby. I then actually used it to build some useful software all because I didn't have access to a "real" C compiler. No rational person would do that now when you can download a Linux distro with a fully featured C compiler (and many other languages) for nothing. The person who wrote this ... <chef's kiss> ... What a magnificent maniac!
