This maybe true, but another alternative would be a simple text editor
to allow people to simply "type" in Z80 code while in class for instance
to pass time and come up with some ideas.  As you mentioned, if you were
to provide a compiler, it would allow one to crash his calculator and
lose all the code that was typed in.  Therefore the text editor idea
would be nothing more than an alternative to jotting ideas down on
paper.
