I think our old kitchen range violated it as well, as IIRC I had to
change the wiring when we put in a new cook top.

Imagine something like a washing machine where the neutral is

But that's a false argument, Bill, because, as you noted, it is
illegal to use the green wire to carry load current, and it's illegal
to connect neutral to ground at any point but the service entrance.
And also because all wiring within my buildings, and in the similar
system I described to Shawn, DOES include both neutral and ground
conductors. I've been through that in both of my buildings, making
sure that there are no such improperly connected loads.
