 - `void` is a singleton of class `Void` (syntax sugar for return type).
 - Object members are always allowed even on unknown types; non-Object members require explicit casts. Remove `inspect` from Object and use `toInspectString()` instead.
 - Do not reintroduce bytecode fallback opcodes (e.g., `GET_NAME`, `EVAL_*`, `CALL_FALLBACK`) or runtime name-resolution fallbacks; all symbol resolution must stay compile-time only.
-
-## Bytecode frame-first migration plan
-- Treat frame slots as the only storage for locals/temps by default; avoid pre-creating scope slot mappings for compiled functions.
-- Create closure references only when a capture is detected; use a direct frame+slot reference (foreign slot ref) instead of scope slots.
-- Keep Scope as a lazy reflection facade: resolve name -> slot only on demand for Kotlin interop (no eager name mapping on every call).
-- Avoid PUSH_SCOPE/POP_SCOPE in bytecode for loops/functions unless dynamic name access or Kotlin reflection is requested.

 - Enforce compile-time name/member resolution only; no runtime scope lookup or fallback.
 - Bytecode uses memberId-based ops (CALL_MEMBER_SLOT/GET_MEMBER_SLOT/SET_MEMBER_SLOT).
 - Runtime lookup opcodes (CALL_VIRTUAL/GET_FIELD/SET_FIELD) and fallback callsites are removed.
-- Migrate bytecode to frame-first locals with lazy scope reflection; avoid eager scope slot plans in compiled functions.
-- Use FrameSlotRef for captures and only materialize Scope for Kotlin interop; use frame.ip -> pos mapping for diagnostics.
 
 Key recent changes
 - Removed method callsite PICs and fallback opcodes; bytecode now relies on compile-time member ids only.
 - Operator dispatch emits memberId calls when known; falls back to Obj opcodes for allowed built-ins without name lookup.
 - Object members are allowed on unknown types; other members still require a statically known receiver type.
-- Added frame.ip -> pos mapping; call-site ops restore pos after args to keep stack traces accurate.
+- Renamed BytecodeFallbackException to BytecodeCompileException.
-- Loop var overrides now take precedence in slot resolution to keep loop locals in frame slots.
-- LocalSlotRef now falls back to name lookup when slot plans are missing (closure safety).
