The Test PLA extends this idea further. It operates asynchronously with respect to the sequencer. After a protection test fires, the PLA needs time to evaluate and produce its redirect address. Instead of stalling, the 386 allows the next three micro-instructions to execute before the redirect takes effect -- and the microcode is carefully written to use these delay slots productively. This is tremendously confusing when reading the microcode for the first time (huge credit to the disassembly work by reenigne). But Intel did it for performance.
John Fingleton, who wrote the report, singled out Hinkley Point's elaborate fish protection measures as a case study of "overly cautious regulation".

Venezuela's oil is also of poorer quality than its Saudi equivalent. Its sour, heavy crude is difficult to extract and refine, while its high sulphur content makes it corrosive to pipelines. A resurgence of Venezuela's industry could pose problems for Canada, which produces similarly viscous oil and exports much of it to the US, but analysts reckon the risk is minor.
