Yeah that I get. But since it is switched on a per-pin basis, and
this is not about what voltage is actually supplied to the I/O cell,
because that comes from the outside, it is a mystery why it is
even needed.

I understand that there is a bit selecting driving voltage level in
the register range, what I don't understand is what that is
doing in the I/O cell.

The bit in the register must be routed to somehing in the I/O cell
and I would like to know what. I take it that an ordinary CMOS
totem-pole push-pull output is going to work the same with 1.8
and 3.3V alike so it's obviously not enabling any extra transistors
or anything.

Yours,
