Since the flash part size can't be determined automatically (the flash chip will decode any address you throw at it), that means the "1 MB below flash" requirement is either overspecified or incorrect for flash sizes != 1 MB. I'm not blaming you, I'm just trying to understand and it wouldn't be the first time that some data sheets are unclear.
The data sheet is perfectly clear about this. And of course it does not explain why. Anyways, I don't want to have to shoot you because I talked about this topic too much.
