The term doesn't make sense. If I have to recompile code for a new machine, it is not compatible, it means a compiler exists. To me, this looks someone's WP:NEO / WP:OR, or possibly a non-notable marketing term that attempts to hide the fact that system "Y" requires a substantial migration effort in order to use legacy software from system "X".

Keep "I don't understand it" is not a good reason for nomination. Nor is then cruising other articles and removing [1][2][3][4][5] inbound links to this article. Particularly not when that involves a change from "is source-compatible (not binary compatible) " to "is not binary compatible", which shifts the whole implied meaning of a sentence from "quite compatible" to "not very compatible".
