Honestly, this sounds a bit hyperbolic. Macronix is notoriously bad
with reusing flash ids where you actually have to be able to tell
them apart from each other in software.

So, if you really have to reuse your flash ids, how about having an
unique id in the SFDP tables, like in a manufacturer specific table?
That would really help us. Could you please discuss that with your
product management?

Anyway,
