The term doesn't make sense. If I have to recompile code for a new machine, it is not compatible, it means a compiler exists. To me, this looks someone's [[WP:NEO]] / [[WP:OR]], or possibly a non-notable marketing term that attempts to hide the fact that system "Y" requires a substantial migration effort in order to use legacy software from system "X".

* '''Keep''' [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Motorola_6809&diff=prev&oldid=840038892 "I don't understand it"] is not a good reason for nomination. Nor is then cruising other articles and removing [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Intel_8086&diff=840038393&oldid=839712123][https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Intel_8086&diff=840041738&oldid=840041371][https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Motorola_6809&diff=prev&oldid=840038892][https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=KDE_Software_Compilation&type=revision&diff=840038771&oldid=820385151][https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=KDE_Frameworks&type=revision&diff=840038642&oldid=836397911] inbound links to this article. Particularly not when that involves [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Intel_8086&diff=840038393&oldid=839712123 a change] from "is [[source-compatible]] (not [[binary compatible]]) " to "is not [[binary compatible]]", which shifts the whole implied meaning of a sentence from "quite compatible" to "not very compatible".
