Thanks for clarifying this! You're right that it's important to document this peculiarity of our graph (there is no BlockEdge from the caller to the callee + there is a BlockEdge from the imaginary entry block) and it would be very nice if you could squeeze something like this review comment into the source comment as well :smile:
