S/LS logic was introduced in the mid 70's, F/AS/ALS around 1980, HC was early 80's. By the third 7400 generation (F/AS/ALS) the problem was well known with parameters available and the logic fairly hard to it.

I would not count on that. Most 74xx that hobbyists use are from
the HC and HCT families. These have been designed in the 70s (IIRC)
and i very much doubt that any of the manufacturers changed anything
in their design since then.
