Is YescryptR16 only CPU mineable?

What prevents GPUs from mining this?

Please take a look at this article: https://steemit.com/crypto/@sequentialvibe/posts-tagged-yescrypt-cpu-miner-cpu-vs-amd-and-nvidia-gpu-mining-for-yescrypt-coins
It's about classic Yescrypt and its hashpower on CPUs and GPUs. YescryptR16 makes the difference between CPU and GPU hashpower even more significant.

Yes... here is the jist of whats important;

Performance results for Yescrypt:
– Intel Core i7 5820K CPU: 5.22 KHS
– AMD Radeon R9 280X GPU: 0.793 KHS
– Nvidia GeForce GTX 980 GPU: 1.124 KHS
