That's actually useful as a minimal machine.

It's possible to have a one instruction machine where the one instruction does a subtract, store, and branch if negative. But it's not very useful. This register-oriented thing is something someone might put inside an FPGA.

This is the the device register mindset, where you do everything by storing into device registers, as a CPU architecture.
