I never said you were wrong ;), I just asked if it was relevant to
differentiate the two cases. IOW, would the implementation proposed by
Adam work correctly on all chips? And what is the real performance
penalty for MT25Q ,MT25T and MT35Q if we decide to split the read
command in several reads to handle this cross die case?

Best Regards,
