When I do something like: dd if='fedora.iso' of=/dev/sdb status=progress I only get around 6 megabytes per second on a USB 2 Sandisk Cruzer Blade flashdrive (store bought, not fleabay) plugged directly into a motherboard's USB 3 port - one that's not sharing its host with any other ports in use.

Writing to flash has more to do with how the flash firmware works. To write to flash a full block needs to be erased and then you can write to it. Some firmware/devices keep free already zero'ed blocks and those can be written to fast but once those run out then it has to erase before writes.
