dirt has been known to be found in most places in the world...
doing a wired-or and wired-and depends on reading IC specifications for specific chips. It
is what design engineers do...

It varies from chip to chip and family to family. Wire OR/etc was
common as dirt.

Sorry for being so obtuse! Phrase meant: "wire OR/etc was very
common in RTL".
I tried wired-OR once in TTL, didn't like the results :-)

Wired-OR will work fine for open-collector output TTL. It will fail

Not surprising, since wiring two outputs together generally produces
something much more like wire-AND. :-)
