Dave is always confused at the best of times ;-]

What I was wondering about was if a port/pin would hold its state and for
how long.
The one mid mcu doc referred to a condition on port A where it could float
or drift.
I was wondering if that was the case for all of the ports or just the one.

I did work with an old moldy intel that did not hold its values which is
why I asked.
I had to continuously refresh it.

Anyway I think I have gleamed the answer from your puzzled responses ;-]
