So what you are saying is that there isn't any known issue that this resolves.

This only changes the driver to use an alternate programming sequence?

The benefit here seems uncertain.

This is exactly what I was saying before.  You glitch the output high
for no good reason.

The sequence in the document isn't gospel.  From what I recall, it was
just a verification engineer's best guess at how to get a very unusual
PWM controller to do the normal PWM things.
