Just as there are function calls and recursive function calls, there are
tail calls and recursive tail calls.  How does explaining something
deepen the mystery, especially as I've said this before?

Yes, it avoids needlessly emphasising one particular case.  If a
compiler (or language) promises to optimise tail calls then mutually
recursive tail calls come for free.

I just went back to check and I see that I said all this in my reply to
you of the 16th ("Eliminating a tail call is a useful optimisation even
when the call is not a recursive one, not least because you don't need
to check for mutual recursion.").  I even gave an explicit example of a
non-recursive tail call.  Now maybe you did not read that reply; maybe I
explained it very badly; maybe Malcolm is right and it just "too hard to
know" but given your love of polemic I suspect you being a tad
disingenuous.
