16-bit arithmetic? Sheer luxury! Every morning we had to wake up at midnight, rewrite all our math routines from scratch, then our manager would kill us all with a machete and dance on our graves! And we liked that just fine.

Just patch your compiler/macro assembler to insert HCF instruction before any conditional control flow instructions.

If you're worried about extra instructions, the DEC PDP-8 has half as many as the 6502.
