If you've ever programmed, imagine kinda-sorta one move per argument per time you call a function. Like `console.log(foo, bar)` would be two moves. (This isn't literally true, it over counts a bit). Ffmpeg would be in the tens of thousands of moves for encoding a short video, maybe? They don't use unique_ptr, so it's hard to do a counterfactual.
An imperfect analogy is this is like nails/screws when building a house.
