What Linux does is to artificially prevent this view to been seen from outside the Linux kernel, or to avoid integrating a particular device into a unique SCSI driver system although it would be apropriate.

So let's get this straight: Linux is artificially limiting userspace from viewing devices in terms of parallel SCSI address (B/T/L) because it does not create such B/T/L addresses, ones which would hence be *artificial* themselves, for non-parallel-SCSI devices?
