And the unnecessarily complicated memory?

Yes, with technology where an ARM runs at 2GHz or an x86 runs at 4GHz.  Note 
that still you have many 2-cycle instructions on these high-speed 8051, too 
(the old "single-cycle" instructions, which took 12 cycles back then are now 
single-cycle instructions which take one cycle).  The size of such an 8051 
on silicon is considerably bigger than a Cortex M0, because it is so hard to 
make it fast.

Yes, complicated memory, difficult to manage especially in a HLL.  If you 
look at the 6805 or similar other CPUs of that age, you see that a uniform 
address space is no problem at all - you even can have your zero-page with 
byte addresses, without fragmenting the address space.
