Oh, the "whys" of the datasheets... The information is there not to be an axiomatic truth, but instead each speck of data must be slowly inhaled while carefully performing a deep search inside oneself to find the true metaphysical sense...

Made me dizzy watching, but I learnt something: You are supposed to pronounce them "Em-Oh-Ess Technologies", not "Moss" as I am prone to say.

In the same vein, I used to pronounce ARM letter by letter until just a few years ago, at which point I finally pronounced it "arm" as most do these days. I don't remember how people at ARM used to really pronounce it in the old days.
