I remember that there was a problem with the old ricoh drives...
At least 7 years ago, media quality and DVD+RW media compatibility between
different
drives has been very bad and I needed to add many workarounds in order to make
cdrecord behave nicely.
It may be that some of the workarounds should be removed today.
Of course they may still be beneficial in some cases. Perhaps based on
the things you have learned in the past few yers it would be practical
to make them a little more selective, so that they would only work
around the original problem. cdrecord is very good about running on old
hardware, so these workarounds seem to have value on those machines.
Hard to write perfect software to run on imperfect (and inconsistent)
hardware. :-(
