It did, and it ain't done yet

I'm looking at the delays during the initialisation. Yes, you can
reduce them to about 100us but whether you see anything is
still dependent on the control lines. For example resetting the
PIC works OK but a cold start gives a blank screen. Similarly
timing during the power-up determines whether the PIC needs
to send a reset, so there's still some unknowns

Forget the datasheet though I think

Yes, I'd hope to do that as soon as I get something definitive
and repeatable
