Quite understandable.
I more meant it may permit you to reach a higher clock rate than
100mhz and thus possibly a higher data rate, for example perhaps
150mhz would be reachable.
For example I would do a bandwidth test for hs400-es at 100mhz, then
test at hs200 and find the maximum stable clock rate.
If 200mhz is stable enough to probe and /sys/kernel/debug/mmc<x>/ios
shows you are in 8bit hs200, you can adjust the clock rate through
/sys/kernel/debug/mmc<x>/clock without needing to reboot.
It will speed up testing.
If hs200 permits a higher overall data rate than hs400-es, it would be
worth making that switch.
Always,
