It's a bit hard for me to tell the intention here. Is the idea that finite fields can take better advantage of CPU architecture than something like SIMD for parallel computation? Or is this just for experimentation?

Edit: this tickles my brain about some similar seeming sort of programming language experiment, where they were also trying to express concurrency (not inherently the same as parallelism) using some fancy math. I can't remember what it was though?
