Of course there's no way to know if the ideas came from there, but I
can see many similarities.  Of course, some ideas are just "in the
air" sometimes, and everyone is following the same path.  But I think
Chuck has been following it for longer.

There are of course significant differences too: these aren't stack
processors AFAICS, and Chuck never used standard cells.
