+Even once designed as an independent RISC-paradigm abstraction system
+Matrix REMAP was realised could be applied to min/max instructions to
+achieve Floyd-Warshall Graph computations, or to AND/OR Ternary
+bitmanipulation to compute Warshall Transitive Closure, or
+to perform Cryptographic Matrix operations with Galois Field
+variants of Multiply-Accumulate. This *without
+adding actual explicit Vector opcodes for any of the same*.

+Thus it should be very clear:
 REMAP, like all of SV, is abstracted out, meaning that unlike traditional
 Vector ISAs which would typically only have a limited set of instructions
 that can be structure-packed (LD/ST and Move operations
