Definitely. SDM has clearly mentioned in overall SAE encoding part:

The EVEX encoding system allows arithmetic floating-point instructions without rounding semantic to be encoded
with the SAE attribute. This capability applies to scalar and 512-bit vector lengths, register-to-register only, by
setting EVEX.b.

It should be register-register only. When memory kicks in, it is invalid.

It is redundant to mention this for each inst description.

Thx,
Haochen
