RFC is also a version. v1 is the first submission we see, so if it was a
RFC, it was a v1.

Sorry, still do not understand. What does it mean "hardware on FPGA is
configurable" in context of property meaning - "enables XXXX"? So you
here configure hardware attached to FPGA to have some piece or not? You
need to answer more.

Have in mind that I read your description how it is written, so
including language grammar. You specifically said "Enables trace mode"
which means for the same device/hardware we can enable or disable trace
mode.

If the meaning is different, please use correct grammar for it.

Yes, you miss several of them. I commented here under first change with
ignored comment.
