In access register mode, the current instruction space is primary, so I do not 
see any inconsistency.

There is an exception to access register 0 designating the primary address 
space, in that for TEST ACCESS the actual contents of access register 0 are 
used, and a zero value simply gives a zero condition code.

They say that the eyes are the third thing to go.

PoOps is inconsistent; it says "Access register 0 always designates the current 
instruction space." but the instruction description explicitly says primary.
