The trouble is the *I* here. The real scenario is as follows.
A large and complex program is developed without systematic
use of these pragmas. In practice you will find a few Elaborate
pragmas presumably stuck in to correct problems with a different
compiler.

Then you port to a new compiler, and you get Program_Error.
Finding and fixing these program errors can be quite complex!
