Yes, I understand this.

But there is also a few other things to consider: keeping the  output
terse and efficient; keeping the same look and feel acrross different
boards  and  platforms,  etc. If you add such code to the CFI driver,
users might request that such code also gets added to all those flash
drivers where the CFI driver cannot be used, etc.

Remember the KISS principle.

You're lucky. To me it seems always to end up with hitting the 90-90
rule.
