In other words, use, for example 0x000B06A2 instead of using M=0x0000000A EM=0x0000000B F=0x00000006 EF=0x00000000 S=0x00000002, which is way more cumbersome and harder to mantain.

Separating between fields can actually be more convinient for understanding the difference between chips. Let's leave it as it is for now
