Agreed!

I'm going to have to study the training manual for the EL-X1 in more detail, because it describes how its ROM core memory works, and it doesn't seem to be an exact match of either of the ones in Brent's document.  Since it goes back to 1958 it seems to be the oldest example, so it's worth digging out the details.
