I use "new" only in the sense of something that was *new* (for you)
when you were exposed to it.  My interest is more on *value* than
newness and/or novelty.

E.g., replacing the i4004's JMS/BBL with the i8008's CALL/RET was
a yawn... stack depth was still severely constrained (though doubled!).

OTOH, the 8080's addition of PUSH/POP was *hugely* (YUGELY?) valuable
as it made a pronounced difference in what was suddenly "realistic" in
terms of managing application implementation complexity.
     "You mean I can push *any* register (pair)?  And, as many as I want
     ALONG WITH subroutine invocations??"

But, does that really buy you much -- unless you are sorely resource
(time/space) constrained?  (Granted, this can be seen as a different
case of the PUSH/POP issue, above -- e.g., building a synchronization
primitive to wrap a set of *discrete* accesses, etc.)

[One of my gripes about Ada is that it's too "big" of a language]

One can always come up with new "features" that can have some merit
in some cases.  What I'm looking for are the "wow" moments when some
feature made a radical difference in how you approach(ed) problems.

Like moving from the 8's JMS to the 11's JSR opening the door for
recursive routines.

Or, having direct access to the "status word" allowing a multitasking
executive to restore the *entire* machine state, etc.

This looks like you are trying to tackle atomic updates on a larger (wider)
scale than just bitfields (?).

If not, then you seem to be creating a huge bias (in the mind of the developer)
to opt for a "set of bitfields" representation of certain structures that
might inadvertently lead to a sort of premature optimization ("Damn!  If
I let the individual fields grow 'just a tad', then I lose the value of
this feature, here...")
