What, just because the following code appears in its assembler?

Don't try and depend on the byte order, though (it's big-endian), don't
depend on auto-increment and auto-decrement addressing modes (they only
work on the stack pointer), and don't depend on instructions like MOVC5
(we have NUL-terminated string instructions) or CRC16 (we don't have it).

Besides, the CPU is only 5 boards, not 27 or so...
