Nevertheless it's important for the policy machinery to track "highest compilation levels”, which are currently stored in MDOs. The biggest effect is that during OSR since the tiered policy checks the compilation level before doing an expensive OSR method lookup, if it’s 0 then the OSR lookup won’t be performed.
