I don't disagree with you. I picked 6502 has the advantage of having so many real legacy products built on top of it.
But again, I agree it's not a great ISA (and only having 3 registers always bug me anyway), so as long as it's a real machine I think it's good. Maybe the one you talked about, or a Z80 machine, would all do the job.
