Everyone. With an efficent stack-pointer-relative addresing mode, you
put all local varibles on the stack and only need as much RAM as the
local variables along the longest path in the call tree.

If your local variables are all static, the local variables of two
functions that never get called at the same time still both takespace in
RAM at the same time.

Compilers can sometimes overly local variables on non-reentrant
functions as an optimization, but that will only work for some cases;
often it would require link-timeoptimization, which is not that common
in compilers for small µCs.

Example: main() calls f() and g(); both f() and g() call h(). All four
functions are in different translation units, f() and g() both use a lot
of local variables, while main() and h() use little. Without link-time
optimization, the compiler will use about as much RAM as f() and g()
together, when the local variables are static. When they are put on the
stack, it will only need as much RAM as either f() or g().
