Remap GPIO pins used in EEPROM #20

Hi,

I need to be able to stack another hat on top of the IoT_pHAT, specifically the Pimoroni Blinkt. (https://github.com/pimoroni/blinkt). As you can see from the pinout (https://pinout.xyz/pinout/blinkt) pins 16 and 18 are in use on the Blinkt, which are also used by the IoT_pHAT.

I understand that as the IoT_pHAT comes with a EEPROM I should be able to modify the Device Tree to remap the GPIO pins to those I require, which should then free up the pins I need for the Blinkt.

What I don't understand is if the pins on the IoT_pHAT are all electrically connected (and so I should be able to remap ok) or physically disconnected (so remapping is not possible).

Would anyone know?
