I think Jake has written down exactly what I said, but that ends up being not what I meant without the surrounding context ;-) We were talking about drives which specify an AWU / AWUPF that is 16KiB (whether that's block-size 4KiB and an AWUPF value of 3 or block-size 512 and an AWUPF of 31).

Basically I was asking that since all implementations of this are cloud storage rather than drive firmware, whether we couldn't just have the cloud storage implement NVMe semantics even with the SCSI command set. Martin doesn't see the need, and since I haven't worked on NVMe in about 12 years, I'm deferring to his expertise.
