We made a lot of examples and got dragged away with scenarios and alternatives that could have been, but weren't, to help OP show how weak implementations (deliberately, for cost, power consumption or reliability sake, or unavoidably, like in the case of IBM abandoning mainstream models development) doesn't imply a weakness of the architecture itself. But yes, we diverted quite wildly.
