For the M6800 'Fewer registers' means there's only a A and B reg (both can
be used as accumulator). BTW, the i8080A/i8085A assembler syntax has the
same habbit of putting the registername inside the instruction-name.
Although not always, that's why people find it confusing to program for
this processor.
