What you are saying is contradictory. I would prefer to have a mapping
crystal clear visible between properties and pins. That is why I want
that description. I remember I have got the datasheet from the company
site with registration without acknowledging any terms. But I do not
find that site.

I think it is useful what I am writing here. DT maintainers are
apparently fine with it, since it has earned a Reviewed-By.
