Idk maybe it's just me, but what I was taught in comp architecture was that cisc vs risc has more to do with the complexity of the instructions, not the raw count. So TPU having a smaller number of instructions can still be a cisc if the instructions are fairly complex. Granted the last time I took any comp architecture was a grad course like 15 years ago, so my memory is pretty fuzzy (also we spent most of that semester dicking around with Itanium stuff that is beyond useless now)
