Yup. 80286 segmentation is horribly complicated as compared to real mode,
and still gives you tiny segments. The only widespread OS that used it
AFAIK was OS/2 1.x, much to its disadvantage. IBM's insistence that OS/2
run on the 286 was a world-shaping mistake.
386 mode was far more useful, and survives to the present day.
