I don't think that full access to all memory and SUBLEQ architecture must happen at the same time. For instance, you can already run a 100% ring-0 operating system on top of x86_64 (e.g. DOS, TempleOS, Mezzano), but it should also be

The whole affair isn't, and wasn't, about GameStop's valuation, or even about Gamestop as a company whatsoever. It's about stock market mechanics and the ability to leverage them to make a profit.
