The datasheet does suggest that the chip supports both temperature and
humidity tracking alert status, which only makes sense if the chip
supports alert limits. It does not support an alert _pin_, but that
doesn't mean that it does not support limits. I'll want to see definite
confirmation that the chip does not support the limit commands.
