the principle of strict Program Order even at the element
level. Thus it becomes
necessary to add explicit more complex single instructions with
-more operands than would normally be seen in another ISA. If it
+more operands than would normally be seen in the average RISC ISA
+(3-in, 2-out, in some cases). If it
was not for Power ISA already having LD/ST with update as well as
Condition Codes and `lq` this would be hard to justify.
