Your role as the end-user is to try to get your work out within the confines of what the software will do. Nobody expects you to exert any effort in the direction of fixing KEIL's screwups. As an end-user, you have simply to live with the product as it is. Nobody expects YOU to fix it, nor does anyone with any sense expect them to fix it, so long as people keep buying it despite its flaws.

However, it's not right to imply that there aren't any bugs just because you haven't seen them yourself.

You're a shill because, whenever anyone suggests that KEIL is too costly, you immediately jump them for being too cheap. You don't say, "It might actually be worth that much..." or the like, but you immediately accuse them of being cheap.

You're a shill because you quickly jump anyone who advocates for another compiler, with a comment like, "well, if you were using KEIL, you'd have no problems."

You're a shill because you say, "You should use KEIL ..." when you probably should limit your comment to, "I use and like KEIL's product, and here's why ..."

If you always echo their party-line, then you're a shill. Check the definition.

I don't use it because (a) I don't like using HLL's for MCU's, and (b) because of the experience I've had with them. It's a limited experience, but I'm not interested in repeating it.

One other thing ... I don't expect anything in KEIL's C-51 compiler to be improved now that ARM, which would benefit from the nonexistence of the PIC, 68HC-whatever, or 805x and derivatives, owns it.
