I'm missing here the "why":

I can go forward into the set and see that you're splitting the handling
based on vector types and there's event classification and the lowest
prio vector is not going to be hardwired to 0x20, yadda yadda...

but some of that should be in the text here so that it is clear why it
is being done.

Thx.
