Based on the images and the patent drawings, it doesn't seem like those readers had any extra logic, unless it was hiding on top of the PDS connector. For something compatible with the ROMs that were shipped, there would have to be extra registers (logic that handles the state of both readers simultaneously, so it wouldn't make sense for the logic to be inside the individual readers).

Could be using the reserved C1/C2 as cable select? I kinda doubt it but you never know.
