Did anyone else notice the absolutely insane author lists of references 1 and 3?

I was expecting to find this 2016 article in there: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12469270

This 2019 one does show up: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22712811

Of course, this "out of spec" behaviour of DRAM, more specifically the ability to do copying, is also implicated in this infamous bug: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5314959

It seems more than one person independently observed such a thing, and thought "this might be a useful behaviour".
