In contrast, the TI-57 takes around 2 seconds to shift 50 steps (when using the "Ins" key). Not sure how the HP-65 does that so fast (or the TI-57 so slowly). Maybe it is a feature of this carousel architecture.

I wouldn't put too much value in using any of the TI Majestic line for performance comparisons. They are basically junk machines with low accuracy algorithms and horriffically slow speeds. Put one side by side with the earlier 2nd gen machines (SR-50A, SR-51A, SR-56, etc.) and run the forensics. Not only are the older machines much more accurate they are much faster and responsive. Like driving a sports car compared to a lorry.
