But the sentence in the standard that the slide is trying to fix covers more than that. And the "overlapping target window" refers to a concurrent put or accumulate, not the load/store update, if I am reading it correctly.
455:32-35
"A put or accumulate must not access a target window once a load/store update or a put or accumulate update to another (overlapping) target window has started on a location in the target window, until the update becomes visible in the public copy of the window. ....., the restriction applies to operations even if they access disjoint locations in the window."
