Also interesting in that code is (to date) the most no-noise communication, with utterly concrete semantics: within its interpretive context, meaning is locked in. Comments on code would then anchor to this solid foundation - drifting upward from it, but still closely in orbit.

In "normal" writing what's the reality we tether to? Perhaps the haziness, the non-consensually of that has loosened writing. The falcon cannot hear the falconer, or will not.
