   Well, I kind of understand what you mean. Basically is up to the user to 
decides either to use a FB or a LCD driver. This is clear.
   
   However, if we think carefully: The "RAM" argument is self-defeating:
   
   On a small displays we  have a small framebuffer, which one fits in small 
MCU RAM...
   
   Large display  means automatically a large framebuffer, what requires 
capable MCU
   which has sufficient RAM...
   
   In any real-world scenario, the MCU RAM scales with the display size. To 
write 10 likes on this display, using a stm32f103 will cause a stackoverflow... 
There is no practical case where a display requires more framebuffer RAM than 
the MCU can provide, because you wouldn't pair that display with that MCU.
   
   Might I'm not undertanding it properly, but, it seems the lcd_dev_s "low 
RAM" advantage only exists in theory, not in real hardware designs.
   
   For sure I can improve the driver, just need to learn and have more time to 
still contribute on NuttX!
