I do care.

Yes, and ENVIRONMENT_IN_EEPROM is NOT defined, and the  #else  branch
uses #define CFG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH 1 (i. e. the default is in the #else
branch.)

This is what I wrote before: in  the  default  configuration  of  the
PPChameleonEVB  board,  the  environmment  is  in  (redundand)  flash
sectors.

Indeed.
