But no one is saying that zero instruction were emulated correctly, the 
claim is that not-all instrucitons were emulated correctly.

You are just showing you ignorance of how the logic of qualifiers work.

"Correct Emulation" is the correct emulation of *ALL* the instructions.

What you are trying to talk about is a correct PARTIAL emulation, which 
is something different, and doesn't prove your point.

Sorry, you are just proving your ignorance.
