You misunderstand my question. Why was the choice of a blocksize of 1024 made?
I'm trying to understand how many devices, and why any other manufacture would make, what seems to me, to be a completely insane choice.
How long has Huawei been using a 1024 byte blocksize? And why? And for how many devices? Essentially, I'm trying to figure out if this was a Huawei-specific mistake.
