@RL_Dane @zens Some people have been designing fantasy CPUs like that, yeah.

But in the real world: "recent Intel x86 MMUs are actually Turing-complete OISCs"
And TrapCC compiles this weird subset-of-x86 architecture.
I seem to remember there's also some normal x86 instruction that is flexible enough that it can be used as an instruction set of its own.
