Not that I'm aware of. Once we have reached the "it does happen and we
have to cope" there was not a lot of point in working out *why* it
happened.

In fact, the only examples I *personally* remember were on NOR flash,
which takes longer to erase. So it's vaguely possible that it doesn't
happen on NAND. But really, it's not something we should be depending
on and the software mechanisms have to remain in place.
