# Proposed New Scalar Instructions
-All of the following instructions use the standard OpenPower conversion to/from 64-bit float format when reading/writing a 32-bit float from/to a FPR.
+All of the following instructions use the standard OpenPower conversion to/from 64-bit float format when reading/writing a 32-bit float from/to a FPR. All integers however are sourced/stored in the *GPR*.
+
+Integer operands and results being in the GPR is the key differentiator between the proposed instructions
+(the entire rationale) compated to existing Scalar Power ISA.
+All existing Power ISA Scalar conversion instructions, all
+operands are FPRs, even if the format of the source or destination
+data is actually a scalar integer.
Note that source and destination widths can be overridden by SimpleV
SVP64, and that SVP64 also has Saturation Modes *in addition*
-to those independently described here. The interactions with SVP64
+to those independently described here. SVP64 Overrides and Saturation
+work on *both* Fixed *and* Floating Point.
+ The interactions with SVP64
are explained in the [[int_fp_mv/appendix]]
