That said, for more complex results, you'd typically load a serialization on start.

I can see the value in this tool, but there must be a fairly limited niche which is too expensive to just have as static and run on start-up and cache, but not so large you'd prefer to just serialize, store and load.

It also needs to be something that is dynamic at compile time but not at runtime.

So it's very niche, but it's an interesting take on the concept, and it looks easier to use than the default source generators.
