In principle, a perfect AD system only needs rules for basic operations and can infer the rules for more complicated functions automatically.

In practice, performance needs to be considered as well.

Some functions use `ccall` internally for performance reasons, for example [`^`](https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/blob/v1.5.3/base/math.jl#L886).

These functions can not be differentiated through by AD systems, and need custom rules.

Other functions can in principle be differentiated through by an AD system, but there exists a mathematical insight that can dramatically improve the computation of the derivative.
