gollark: So reassigning yet another register to hold a bunch of flags or something, splitting ADDI back into multiple instructions, and using the extra space for conditionals could work.
gollark: Or, I suppose more accurately, only not unused on `ADDI`, so I guess I could just change that?
gollark: Well, that could be neat, except they're only unused on `LOAD`/`STOR`.
gollark: It goes `02 [register index]0 [high byte of address] [low byte of address]` right now (or 03 for `STOR`), but the unused 4 bits sadden me.
gollark: What should I do with the spare 4 bits of space in LOAD/STOR instructions?
