Huh, that's surprising. I looked it up and indeed you're correct. Well, oof. Though to be fair I don't now how much of an impediment that is for actually implementing very wide decoders in practice. Hopefully not too bad.

Relative to x86 (where you need bruteforce, with complexity growing geometric to decode width), it is so cheap you could call it free.
