I come from the same lineage as the author. I did 6502 (doing C64 demos) long before I encountered the Z80. From what I remember, the Z80 offers a vastly superior programming experience. It has more registers. it has 16 bit registers. It has a shadow register set (you can switch between sets, which is handy for interrupt routines, for example) Programming assembly on the Z80 just is less of a fight.
