I've only ever been using IDF v5 but as this is a potentially fatal issue, I'm wondering if it is recommended to set the bits permanently at the time of manufacture? E.g. using esptool like some in that thread did. Is that safe to do in theory? It looks like those commands are run through flasher_stub, but I'm wondering if extra protections would be in order to do this reliably at manufacture time.
I was looking for info about running ESP32 flash chips at 80mhz and while searching my ESP32's JEDEC ID I came across https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/issues/7994
