What, you don’t have a special command to Compare Unsigned values in register C vs result register K? or Floating-point Addition with Parenthesis, so store the value for use on the next cycle?

I’m pretty sure fused add multiply with store is part of the AVX instruction set.

I still don’t know why this architecture went for a Double XOR as the NOP, I guess they were just flexing that the reference chip design could do both in a single cycle

IT years are similar to dog years, an IT year is multiple normal human years, so 14 IT years is certainly IT decades.
