Could the controversy behind it be the reason that the author ommitted it? It was established terminology by 1973, as far as I can tell. | ||

> It was established terminology by 1973, as far as I can tell That's a worthwhile observation. The 1973 article anyway doesn't go into depth about comparative computer architecture. It's also possible the term's currency in computer science circles hadn't yet crossed into Halmos' mathematics circles, but I wouldn't know. | ||
