Does your ID (e.g. passport) has exactly that name? With dot? Really?

Email threading is completely broken. It means all reviewers see it as
complete unrelated emails which makes any review annoyingly more difficult.

So you did not understand anything from any comments?

You miss if:then: block which disallows this for other chips. You claim
only one device supports it, so why the property should be valid for
other devices?

Sorry, this is not a proper sentence and I cannot parse it.

Because it is much more readable. I don't care about your phy register.
