-On can then imagine any sequence of platforms such that there are bootstrap stages with their 3 platforms determined by "sliding a window" that is the 3 tuple through the sequence. This was the original model for bootstrapping. Without a target platform (assume a better world where all compilers are multi-target and all standard libraries are built in their own derivation), this is sufficient. Conversely if one wishes to cross compile "faster", with a "Canadian Cross" bootstrapping stage where `build != host != target`, more bootstrapping stages are needed since no sliding window provides the pesky `pkgsBuildTarget` package set since it skips the Canadian cross stage's "host".
