Description
(cc @brendandahl) I noticed that loads and stores for the half precision floats (https://github.com/WebAssembly/half-precision/blob/main/proposals/half-precision/Overview.md) are missing from the proposal https://github.com/WebAssembly/multibyte-array-access/blob/main/proposals/multibyte-array-access/Overview.md#supported-instructions is that intentional?

Research direction
Read the multibyte-array-access Overview.md supported-instructions section and compare it with the half-precision proposal's Overview.md. Determine whether half-precision loads and stores are intentionally omitted; done means documenting the decision or updating the proposal's supported-instruction list accordingly.
