We have defaulted to 10-byte commands for a long time and the 6-byte
variants are no longer to be found in SCSI SBC-4 and SBC-5. In addition,
most devices now have capacities which exceed what 6-byte commands can
address.

I will not object to adding a fallback to a READ(6) if I receive a bug
report as a result of this change. But I prefer not to perpetuate the
6-byte command special-casing if we can avoid it. Especially if we know
that $OTHER_OS is issuing a READ(10) during discovery.
