So I haven't done much here lately, but when I saw this I thought of redstone

But would this help redstone speed up? (Like say we built whole computers with terminals and everything.)

It generally won't help if we were to try and implement the system in minecraft. The main issue being the fact that we'd have to make a really complicated pre runtime compiler to actually use it with any usability. There is also the fact that most of the benefits are completely removed by the fact that we generally only use one FU in current CPU designs. If you added more adders/other units and implemented a system that uses VLIW type instructions then it might be helpful. This is because it's speed comes from its ability to handle 33(if I remember correctly) mixed MIPS instructions which is impossible with only a single ALU and no other FUs.
