So just to be completely clear... Because a secondary partition starts with an EBR sector, we'd want to place that just *prior* to the erase block boundary, so that the start of the real partition data is aligned.
I hadn't thought about that and I appreciate you pointing it out.
The rest of the stuff I was pretty aware of. And you confirmed there were no other special constraints.
Thanks.
