"There are 256 bits in the set of ODM_RESERVED fuses, and there are 8 ODM_RESERVED. This allows for 32 fuses, or 32 future FW versions (provided they burn a fuse on every major release)."

I’m not sure if that’s accurate as ODM 6 is also used for anti downgrade and some of the other ODMs are used while some are currently unused:
https://switchbrew.org/w/index.php?title=Fuses#FUSE_RESERVED_ODM0
Note: I haven’t done any calculations.
ODM5, 6 and 7 don't contain anything and aren't write protected, so all of them could be used theoretically. Each have 32 fuses, for a total of 96.
Currently ODM7 is being used.
Currently ODM7 is being used.
no. and the switch will most likely never have every fuse used. its been 3 years and a lot of major updates since release, and theres been less than 15 fuses burnt.
If they're smart no. They can just set that all burned as a check, if not, they just burn all the fuses and continue booting.
You could burn all 128 writable ODM reserved fuses and the system would still be functional (although you'd need a modified CFW to boot)
So no. Them not being burnt isn't needed for anything.

@SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme -

A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."+2 -

anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media+1
if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them -
@
BigOnYa:
Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.+1

@BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.+1
The issue is DRM -
@
cearp:
You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60
