Sadly, you didn't quote any language in the standard to justify such a
statement.  If you expect anyone to take you seriously you'll have to
do that.  For what it's worth, I don't believe that's what the ISO C
standard says.

In any case, this discussion is pointless: we are moving towards
tracking the proposed memory model, which solves the problem.
