Ofcourse it would make sense. But I think it remains to be unclear until 
some official written document is found. After all it was ASCII who was 
responsible for the DEVELOPMENT of the MSX. And since the story of the 
Japanese is the only story actually DOCUMENTED (in an official business 
magazine), I think there is a great chance their story makes sense as well.
