...why is the oddity in DSM? In the past I have discovered instances in which DSM was the only implementation of M in which the standard was correctly implemented. The 'oddity' was in all the other systems. Go figure.... ???
Not having a standard document at hand, I am wondering where in the standard is the 'programmer mode' mentioned at all.
