Thanks Toni - your insight is always appreciated.

The faults in my case all entirely lied with my code, and debugging them on real Amigas is simply the reality that is required to run reliably. For me it was part of the process and satisfying to resolve.

I think you interpreted my comments this way, but to be clear: there is zero criticism of WinUAE here. The fidelity of the emulation is incredibly impressive.

I guess WinUAE could conceivably have emulation options to try to emulate less tolerant drives or warn about certain unsafe behaviors, which would be useful to a very small set of users. Most users would never want these things enabled as they would prefer their software just be more likely to work even if it has bugs.
