Well, you caught me! :)

In fact, DAA (the very same instruction) is called "DA 
after Addition" in x86 assembly (I dare to say this on the 
basis of the book I learnt assembly programming from). I'm 
actually not sure about the proper name in the case of the 
Z80, but it doesn't have much significance anyway...
