I don't know specifically about the various memory types being bandied
about, but I do know that the destructive read behavior of core memory my
be required for some architectures; "load and clear" type instructions rely
on the suppressing the write-after-read cycle to make the instruction
atomic, allowing the implementation of data locking instructions. For some
architectures,  it may be that any replacement memory would have to support
the suppression signal to work correctly.
