Since your answer seems to be an unstated question, I will attempt to answer what you might have inferred. I was just attempting to note that the CDC 3300 hardware was able to support that function more than a DECADE earlier. By 1967 when I arrived, the system had already been running for quite a while in support of many engineers who required access to a computer that avoided the punch card route followed by submitting the cards to the batch queue - and waiting - and waiting.
Don't forget the GE600-series, in particular the 635 and 645. Supported DTSS and the virtual memory 645 running MULTICS.
