four aspects:
-1) instructions with only one source
-
-2) RM Modes
-
-3) is the loss of the dynamic meaning "VL=0" nop effect important?
-
-4) why would "sv.op all-scalar" be inside a loop in the first place?

## answers to 2, RM Modes
saturation mode is fine
-predicate-result should be fine as well.
+predicate-result should be fine as well (aside from change in predicate behaviour)
## answers to 4, loops/uses
**REMAP**
A REMAP would redirect operations from the first nonmasked
-predicated element.
+predicated element to the first **REMAPped** element.
