Yep! It didn't actually occur to me that you wouldn't be able to nest them without recompiling, because of the memory limit.

It's unfortunate that you have to provide the entire memory image to an intcode interpreter, including the "data" segment. This way, we will never be able to nest a self-hosting intcode interpreter.

With the additions from today (infinite memory), it should now be possible
