A nop instruction 'does nothing' and intuitive is safer. At second thought, I'd say there is not so much difference - the processor has to fetch the instruction, increment the IP, decode the instruction and carfully do it's stuff (which is this case is leaving all registers and memory alone). If it can do this, why can't it set a register to zero etc.? If this is the case, I don't think it is a good idea to document the nop to be related to the oscillator change.
