Starlark allows no recursion whatsoever, and it limits it by looking at runtime if the call stack ever recurses and fails if you do.

But for i in range(10000000): would allow us to repeat a section of code a practically unbounded number of times since range is lazy now.

see: bazelbuild/bazel#5264

We could potentially compile our bounded recursive code into such functions.
