Sorry, then why did they change the mnemonics in the R800?!

And I think there's enough intel programmers (maybe even more than z80
ones) to justify intel style mnemonics if what you said would be true.

No, there must be some deeper meaning to the mnemonics-style. Otherwise all
processors would use the same style mnemonics, wouldn't they?!
