Hi David,
It’s not at all outlandish, but would caution it's more work than one might
initially think.
Could you describe a little more about your use case? that can be helpful to

I think that’s the path of least resistance. It’s just a vxor on each operand,
with a constant mask. That can be done in Java co
Presently, I'm implementing operations for a WASM emulator/runtime, so it's
more a case of transitively acquiring use cases from WASM, though I'm also
doing this specifically to practice accomplishing useful things with the
vector API.
Regarding saturating arithmetic: WASM has operations for that
