I could, but I fail to see what we'd gain by using this (aside from
slightly shorter lines). Or am I completely missing the point?

Well, it is a sad fact of life that the maximum number of LRs *is*
hardcoded to an architectural limit of 16. These are CPU registers, and
there is only so many of them (and probably a lot less in practice -
filling 4 of them has proved to be an extremely rare case).

Thanks,
