It certainly never achieved the same level of acceptance as the venerable Z80!  BTW, that same "glitch" might exist in the eZ80 as well.  I just don't know.

eZ80 borrows 'unused' instructions (LD B,B LD C,C LD D,D LD E,E) saying if
the assembler encounters them they will be replaced with NOPs.  So clearly
not 'binary compatible'.  Has Zilog ever made such a claim?  Here's what
they say in the eZ80 manual:

"The Z80 and Z180 programs are executed on an eZ80 CPU with little or no
modification."
