      • 3.1.2 "Legacy devices do not support the FEATURES_OK status bit, and
        thus did not have a graceful way for the device to indicate unsupported
        feature combinations. It also did not provide a clear mechanism to
        end feature negotiation, which meant that devices finalized features on
        first-use, and no features could be introduced which radically changed
        the initial operation of the device."

      This has mixed tenses ('do not'/'did not'/'which meant'). Probably
      should all be present tense, since all the statements are still true of
      legacy devices now as well as in the past.
