The first, even on its own, doesn't make things worse, only better.
The second, which we agree needs to be fixed also, addresses a different issue.

Either way, please also note that these patches fix the original

Suggestions for the diagram:
- As an enhancement, would you mind showing the A64_FP also?
- Please revisit "+64:"
