#179961 - but isn't this the case with ALL microcontrollers?
Responding to: ???'s previous message
There are individual interrupt source disables in other microcontrollers, too - including the '51, of course - and they are also usually disabled after reset by default.

So what's the difference?

I understand that any way it is safe after reset, just wonder why did ARM chose that unusal default state.
