Yeah, I don't know what numbering Atheros uses, it's very confusing.
Anyhow, I agree with you, it doesn't matter much to me; although we have almost successfully reverse engineered Broadcom's firmware, which isn't possible if it's burned into a ROM. It just seems weird to me to burn it into ROM if you could save that cost which is why I always believed it was simply in the HDL. But yeah, it doesn't matter much since you can always treat firmware+cpu as one thing and combine it into new HDL too.
