Err, I did not offer to do this, right? I should have used the
conjunctive mood (would, could be, etc) for that, sorry.

I don't at all think it is sane, I just wanted to say that there is no
fundamental reasons why this cannot work. The other question that this
seems to be a perversion, but it still can work, in theory. And if all
is done correctly, I should be able to stripe NAND and NOR, in theory.
But again, I emphasize, I do not offer to try this combination, or to
test it.
