So, for the sake of gaining knowledge, not argument, can an XIP be stripped down, rebuilt or optimized to the point that it might be device-specific?
My mistake - I meant one base per device per build. You could do it one base per build, and we might move to that, but presently one base per device is the most effective thing to work from. Note that this doesn't prevent people from introducing their own tweaks, it just cuts down on duplicate effort.

That'd be fine if "old school" didn't have significant drawbacks. As it does, and they aren't doing it for nostalgic reasons, it's ignorance.
