+ 63 bit references user code (not a lot of loss in precision)
+ Easy to check if a reference is a library reference or a user
code reference by checking "sign bit" (negativity)

+Essentially consider the following situation

+This is equivalent in LOC, but in terms of the actually output

** DONE Write a label/jump system :ASM:
Essentially a user should be able to write arbitrary labels (maybe
