It's also worth noting that (ostensibly) the first complete
microcomputer system (keyboard, printer, storage) was the MCM/70, using
an 8008 implementing APL (not BASIC!).

I had to see this message several times before I saw the 8008! WOW, the 8008 was a very limited processor, I'm amazed it could handle APL! I built an 8008 system using wire-wrap in 1976, but it only had 256 bytes of static RAM, and a keypad and LEDs for a console.
