We are in a position to say what sort of hardware we want to support.
Indeed, we have a lot to say about that. I guess I should write it down.
Flash memory has a finite life, and repeatedly flashing it will eventually wear
it out and make
the device non-functional.
Modern devices are specified for at least 10,000 writes, often hundreds
of thousands, and unlimited reads. You don't have to worry about this.
