no. that would be not industry best practice and uneconomical sw effort.
remember this devices are mainly "designed for windows" and WHQL certification 
is expensive for every single driver. and ms has only one driver for all usb storage 
right now, all boxes and sticks i had here use it.

yes. the sheet for design recommended cypress chips state all ATACB and ATA-Security.
i would be make no sense to implement different behaviuors in chips for the same purpose.
