🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so picture this: you've got a short value and you're like "bestie, this needs to go into user memory at this exact address." That's literally the whole vibe of this function 💅

It writes the short value to a given user memory address. But — and this is the important part — it reports an error when writing to the given address fails. So if the write doesn't slay, it will absolutely let you know 😭

⚠️ Requires the use of guru mode (-g). Not optional, not a suggestion, it's giving mandatory. Don't skip it or the whole thing falls apart 🙈
