However, it's not without its obnoxious bits.
On the T-11, all writes are performed as read-modify-writes.
Hmm... was that because of the needs of core memory, or was it just to
simplify some aspect of its internal design?
I don't know anything about the internals, so I can't say. Although
AFAIK core was pretty much gone by the time the T-11 happened, it may have
been based on an earlier design that did interface to core.
