Part of a series of failed hardware tests as cited by #15 of krom's test code at PeterLemon/N64.

Obviously never pragmatically exploited by any sort of program, the reserved op-codes under the C2 sub-op-code instruction class have been explored by PeterLemon as having a certain consistent pattern to their behavior. Both the algorithmic interpretation and evaluation by PeterLemon are incomplete and insufficient; not to mention the chances of someone discovering this issue are quite low. The test suite also makes no effort to evaluate reserved scalar op-codes but only vector-class ones.
