Yes, that's a definite.

It would be very easy for loops 2 & 3 to be a multiple of loop 1.
( can't be 100% sure they didn't implement that)

To do EDP type multiply would be harder, because the memory in the
RC-50 is structured to do 99 loops.

Imagine they fill up memory with loop after loop, one after the other.
Then it's a little harder to Multiply loop 2 when it's squashed between
loop1 and loop3.

...but really, I think the manufacturers just don't care to do it.
