I have doubts this are true reviews. What did it even show? Why this
review did not point problem with generic compatible?

No, that does not look right. If you added generic compatible for all
RIIC then how can you add a new RIIC compatible which does not follow
generic one?

This shows the ridiculousness of these generic compatibles. They are
generic till you figure out the truth: oh crap, it's not generic.

Stop adding generic compatibles when they are not generic.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
