Anyone have a suggestion why these behaviors would be different?

To claim HP disable financial register stack-lift on purpose is a bit weak.
This could explain away almost anything, even above odd behavior
(real use cases suggest ... it is documented ... uh, it is a feature)

Sadly, by claiming bug as feature, it will never get fixed.

My first time beaten by this type of "feature" is with RCL (Yes, it is also documented)
Say, 5 is stored in memory 0, with a clear stack:

5 * 5: RCL 0 Enter x => 25 -- so far so good
5 * 4: RCL 0 Enter 1 - x => 100 -- ???
