+In addition to the above, it is necessary to select whether, in `svstep`
+mode, the Vector CR Field is to be overwritten or not: in some cases
+it is useful to know but in others all that is needed is the branch itself.
+In the case of `sv.bc` there is no additional bitspace so the ``AA`
+field is re-interpreted instead to be `Rc`. For `sv.bclr`, there is free
+bitspace and so bit 16 has been chosen as `Rc`.

+**These interpretations are only available for sv.bc, they are NOT
+available for Power ISA v3.0B** i.e. only when embedded in an SVP64
+Prefix Context do these and all other parts of this specification
+apply.  To repeat: **Standard Scalar v3.0B Branch is in
+absolutely no way impacted or altered in any way shape or form by
+the SVP64 variant of the same**
