> One other question occurred to me - what about situations where C is doing something in a situation where it hasn’t been called from Lua? Eg a C callback is triggered and calls a Lua function?

When Lua starts, it ensures those 20 slots. So, if each of these
"situations" always use the stack balancedly (e.g., a callback pops
everything it pushed), you don't need to check the stack. (If they use
the stack unbalancedly, you are doomed to have a stack overflow sooner
or later.)
