On the subleq VM, it would run faster if they implemented Muxleq, but it woudn't win the IOCCC contest maybe. Altough in unobfuscated it's C it's just an extra short if clause with two more lines.

Lol, no. That's a Numitron (although they were 7 segment)

You are confidently incorrect.

your article says it's a gas discharge vacuum tube, so no filament. You seem to be confidently incorrect too.
Filament implies it is resistively heated, per tube terminology. Nixie is essentially a neon lamp, specially shaped, whose cathode is cold.
