As I mentioned in the other threads I think with vbt it's not too paranoid
to double-check our assumptions. So for each vbt version range I'd like us
to check what size we exactly expect. Being super paranoid with vbt is imo
good practice since otherwise the hw teams will sneak in another update
without us realizing it.
