I read the motivation to be "I've been reading about ROP, and all the examples are via buffer overflows. hey! I wonder if the threat of ROP could be defeated by simply defeating overflows!"
@RоryMcCune I remember when we were in the Falklands - despite there being a store where you could buy anything from eggs to speedboats, it depended on the monthly/bimonthly boats for anything fresh...so everyone had massive chest freezers and you would literally have half a cow in there
