could also do the graphx thing where we wait on the first draw call, but that still requires calling a function before accessing the framebuffer so seems better to just have the user call it once and save cycles

the external flash is just connected to cpu pins that can be used for other purposes, so the cpu has no way of knowing if there is flash or not without some code to set it up

but the internal flash contains things like the initial stack pointer and instruction pointer, so that kind of has to be able to set itself up without any program code running

lol, so there's internal flash on the SoC and an external flash chip as part of the design, those memory regions are just partitions of the internal flash which is used for all read-only sections, such as code, read-only data, and writable data initialization
