I went ahead, answered yes, and it seems to work OK, but I was curious
to understand what the message really means.

Before reflashing memory with an image, does ubiformat always warn the
user that the empty blocks after the image will have their erase
counter set to the average computed from the used blocks, regardless
of their actual usage so far?

It's just for my education. Thank you.
