Someone mentioned elsewhere that if a PR didnt mention it was what layer it was, it meant it was QLC. Is that true here?

Why is this sort of phrase used here? It sounds like the kinda marketing lingo directly coming out of the company's PR talk.

Possibly, considering unsavory talks about QLC. IMO, depending on how well QLC is implemented & improved onto NAND flash, dictates the quality of the SSD. QLC is still fairly new to the market, so as it is right now, it might be badly implemented but might change for newer SSDs down the line.

Sorry, it's just that I haven't read a lot of news, especially with press releases to know enough about this.
