hmm. This is curious. So the datasheet indeed provides a table saying
grounding both pins sets the address to 0x20, however take a look at
Figure 2 which says the address is
A1 | A0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0

or 0x10 as per the example. My guess is someone forgot that i2c addresses
are 7 bits and the lowest bit of the first byte is used for R/W control.

So unless we have this verified on hardware (implying that the address table
is correct in this sense) I'm not keen to take this.
I doubt that is the case given it has 8 bit addresses (0xe0) and i2c addresses
are 7 bits.
