yes.  that's how SimpleV works - it's what it is.

think about it: SimpleV is a hardware for-loop.  the Program Counter
pauses, and a *SUB-EXECUTION* loop occurs (for i in range(VL))

however each output from that sub-execution loop goes...

... into the instruction issue.

ta-daaa :)

therefore, lmw can quite literally be replaced with a SimpleV
"SVPrefix" instruction.  SVP{VL=32}.LD r1, r2#D.

done.
