Other than boot strap loaders I can't think where
non - volatile memory on the 8 is needed.
It is pretty much an essential feature if you don't have
block-replaceable media of some kind to boot from. Maybe
everyone is hiding block-replaceable media in their terminal
(PC) these days?
I you have a working block device and boot card, then it is
just a luxury :-).
