Over-USB region writing (updater.exe) and reading (gda.exe) has some prohibited regions too. And it's a different story, it's not like update.txt commands. I'm not so sure in this case.

In both cases region data is written using HWM_write_rgn function, which has some limitation too. And the way it works exactly is like unexplored space for me.
