Thanks, and you're correct; not sure why you got downvoted for this. For anyone curious here are the data sheets for RP2040 [for original Pico] and RP2350 [for Pico 2], which describe the systems in detail.

"the Pico includes an RP2040 which is where the PIO runs" to me sounds like it implies either

- The original Pico was not built around the RP2040 as its central part ("includes" sounds to me like it was an addition)

- The Pico 2 includes a RP2040 (in addition to the RP2350) which runs PIO

Neither of which are true. I'm guessing some other people had a similar reaction.
