It's the mental acrobatics implied that make this impractical in the first place. While we don't expect this kind of (almost) undocumented behavior to change ever, the mere fact that it's security based on the behavior of a rarely used feature makes it suspect.

That's on the same level of complexity as proper machine translation from english (or mandarin or japanese - the highly polysemic languages), or just about anything else that requires so much semantics. As long as there are calculated jumps (i.e. your basic IF, Case, do while, select where &lcCondition, magic numbers) in the code, there's no AI yet that could understand what did the poet have in mind. Its output would necessarily be as incomprehensible as the code it tries to interpret.
