>it allows to formally verify the correctness of a particular ISA That must be hypothetical. "Functionalness" of the language/code doesn't make everything that is written automatically subject to formal verification. (mechanized or pen and paper). What kind of correctness properties does it actually allow to formally verify? I understand if it was the F* language, which is a full blown dependently typed proof checker, but with F#, which is defined by the implementation and 300 page English spec, I don't think you can verify anything interesting. As far as I know F# itself doesn't have mechanized formal semantics and its type system could be unsound. https://github.com/mit-plv/riscv-coq and https://github.com/riscv/sail-riscv (don't know how complete they are) approaches actually allow to formally (mechanically) verify riscv properties.

ur executable specification could probably be called "Formal", in the same sense as a PDF spec being called "Formal", but being subject to verification by the virtue of F# being functional or being written in the functional style might be pushing it too far.
