Encoding spaces and their potential are illustrated:

Notes:
on top of an SVP64 prefix which is 32-bit on top of a Defined Word
and the complexity at the Decoder becomes too great for High
Performance Multi-Issue systems.
+* EXT100-163 instructions (PO1-Prefixed) are also prohibited from being
+ double-PO1-prefixed (not twice prefixed)
* RESERVED2 presently remains unallocated as of yet and therefore its
potential is not yet defined (Not Applicable).
* RESERVED1 is also unallocated at present, but it is known in advance
