As far as I’m aware, the main problem with decompilers is the fact that they can’t name variables and functions automaticly. But that doesn’t matter if you are just going from binary -> decompiler -> compiler -> binary

And I know there’s a lot of platform dependent code like OS APIs (such as DirectX, and WinAPI). But surely there are substitutions of the functions defined in these APIs right? I think automated porting could be performed 90% of the time and the remaining 10% could be fixed with community patches

This feels like a incredibly stupid idea after writing down but I just want to know
