“Accidental” — you are far more trusting than I

Pretty much. I was playing BotW on an emulator that was using Vulkan and as I ran into new areas, or new enemies appeared it would stutter as things were compiling (it also has a debug option to tell me when new shaders were being compiled so I knew that’s what it was). I eventually switched to pre-compile. It took about 10 minutes, but after that everything ran silky smooth.
