Yes, you understand essentially correctly.  Dead code elimination was just the
first example I could think of:  If a certain cluster of nodes within the graph
has no edges to nodes that output the results (say because the user has comented
out the Scheme code that writes one of the output files) then the operations
concerned need not be evaluated.
