PIR is foremost Parrot's primary assembly language. If it were for
compiles only, it wouldn't have needed "a = b + c" in the first place,
the "add" opcode is doing the same.

PIR has nice constructs for function and method calls. I don't see any
reason, why people shouldn't write PIR code directly. A HERE document
syntax allows to write more readable code.
