I think I can see where Vincent is coming from on this, but it's not MMBasic as we currently know it. It's to MMBasic what Circuit Python is to Python 2. A different beast really, built for low level hardware access.

You wouldn't normally allow BASIC to have such low level control as it's not really intended to do that. That stuff is supposed to be hidden from the BASIC programmer and "just work". The Commodore computers did but that's only because their BASIC was so unbelievably poor at supporting any hardware at all.
