So you've been converted to the Bob Pease school of hand waving ?:-)

My POV: Design puts the idea onto paper. Simulation proves that what
is on the paper really works. But simulators don't "design". In my
business, simulation "proof" is required for each and every process
corner, otherwise the customer doesn't "buy".

Your Sysreset sets Q high, but your sim starts with Q low. Why?

The default set-ups included FF initial conditions Q=0. If I uncheck
that box it starts, as would be expected, with Q=1.

Well, run that. It's more interesting.
