Something saying that CallLeafPureNode represents calls that are pure: they only have data input and output data (and control for practical reasons for now), no exceptions, no memory, no safepoint... They can be freely be moved around, duplicated or, if the result isn't used, removed. Then that explains... a lot of what we are doing, not just `is_unused`.

I think I was really just confused about the `Parms`. I thought that means parameters .. and not results :rofl:
