Simple-V is a type of Vectorisation best described as a "Prefix Loop
Subsystem" similar to the 5 decades-old Zilog Z80 `LDIR` instruction and to the 8086 `REP`
Prefix instruction. More advanced features are similar to the Z80
-`CPIR` instruction. If viewed as an actual Vector ISA it introduces
+`CPIR` instruction. If viewed one-dimensionally as an actual Vector ISA it introduces
over 1.5 million 64-bit Vector instructions. SVP64, the instruction
format, is therefore best viewed as an orthogonal RISC-style "Prefixing"
subsystem instead.
