    Just to be fair, I should point out that IEEE rules state that where the
    standard is ambiguous, an interpretation needs to allow the most liberal
    interpretation. This is because the content of a standard is determined
    by what is written there, not by what was intended to be written there,
    and here there was not even an intent at that time.
