I think making them optional is useless, so either make them mandatory or drop them if we can avoid it. Unfortunately, LCR is not part of SBSA, that would let us drop the properties and still report the correct settings. Would we be better off documenting that 8-n-1 is the only allowed settting? I can't think of a reason why anyone would use something else.
