[WARNING: I AM A TECO EMACS USER!]
C-o in the original Emacs didn't quite do what C-o now does: the line(s)
created by C-o were "eated" by the text that was inserted. In other
words, RET in the line(s) created with C-o did not push the next lines
down, it went on the next created line (if any).
It does exactly the same thing it does today. Maybe you are confusing
this with the way the gap buffer works?
In other words again,
let's assume the following initial situation:
A
|D
E
where | is the point. After C-u 2 C-o B RET C RET, the buffer was now:
A
B
C
|D
E
That is not the behaviour of TECO emacs, you would have two extra two
newlines there, like in GNU emacs.
"So, FOO Return is equivalent to C-o FOO."
