VR/W timing (split/OT from: Cheese and Onion)

Do you know the VIC that did not like Cheese and Onion?

(mod: split from Cheese and Onion as this post is essentially related to hardware issues)

The improvement on the timing logic from 2-prong to DIN/CR had been covered in this thread here: "Anyone know what this board mod is?", to quote:
Mike wrote:[...] On the 2-prong, the VR/W signal is simply disconnected from CR/W during VIC fetches, but it is not actively driven to H-level (i.e., read) as in the DIN variant. [...]
There's a pull-up for VR/W on the 2-prong mainboard, but it's rather weak.
