But isn't it clear that you need to go to the device-tree itself to
understand the details?

As far as basic features go sometimes there is very little difference
in these board models. It would be a struggle to list all the board
details (which I do in the dts commit) in a way that doesn't take up
too much space in fsl.yaml.
