When the mobl compiler fails, that’s not noticeable apart from an error in the error log and the fact that re-generation fails. A pop-up (or other type of alert) alerting the dev to the fact that (for some unforeseen reason) compilation failed, saves the typical “Why doesn’t it update?!” phenomenon.
