(HCIL should get marginalized, as all agree)
"Marginalized" was not the term that I remember.

One step further: eliminate the ugly legacy SPI-centric HCIL from
SCSI Core. Minimise and streamline SCSI Core.
I agree. FC, SAS, USB, SBP et al do not need to _share_ some HCIL
mapping helpers --- they and the core need to get rid of HCIL mapping
entirely. Why spend energy on optimization of existing HCIL mappings?
usb-storage and sbp2 already implement the leanest possible HCIL mapping
(1 logical unit to 1 H). There is only one way to make this even more
leaner and, at the same time, cleaner.
