Isn't it the kb (possibly the kc) that can have 64k code & 64k data space.
Theres a control line to separate them out.  OK so the code and data have to
be burnt into separate eproms, but you still get 128k program space!

I like the 196, a real flexible registers system, quite a quick multiple
instuction, and every register can be operated on.  For someone from a 6502/
Z80 background, this thing is heaven!
