Where can OTP regions be?
Can you please be serious?
If you have any suggestions, I am happy to hear.
I did ask before.

Sure, I will add a minimum.

You are welcome to suggest a better rephrase.
Using OTP settings is optional.
If you set OTP then the number of regions and region length are mandatory.
While offset and base are optional for OTP settings.

Is there a grouping description?

Yes, there are. Old Mactronix have chips with the first region bigger
than the second region.
As these are old chips, we may skip the support of them.

Sure.

OK, good point.
