No, I don't pay much attention to details in your long
repetitious posts.
They tend to be vague and, may I say so, overly pretentious.
Still a talking voltmeter should have drawn my attention.

I think you should have at least have mentioned that it was
done in a different company, with a different compiler.
So we could draw the conclusion that it was hardly relevant.
Can you at least comment on how good this project will run
on the Green Array chips?

If you are not working on the crystal oscillator and not
on the talking Voltmeter, what are you working on lately?

You shouldn't downplay the wine miracle. It knocked people
off their socks, because they didn't understand how Jesus
did it.  The understanding of children nowadays would
have impressed Greek philosophers, but they have been taught,
which is different from inventing.

This is a silly rationalisation of a decision not to beef up
the crystal document. From a marketing point of view this
decision is weird, if not indefensible. Unless, of course,
Green Arrays can't. That is what the world thinks.
What I think is that a practical circuit with a 10 Mhz
crystal is definitively non-trivial.
