actually using submenu might have been as good.

So actually instead of putting an ifdef here, I would actually try to monitor if this can actually happen. I think this is a theoretical case. I wouldn’t know how this can actually fail since the key size is known by the controller and handing it out to the host is easy. Failure can only happen if the connection terminated in the meantime or if the handle is invalid. If all is valid, then this command will succeed.
