Right, since it does not need any extra resources. Probably not the
best example.

I guess hotplugging support in the downstream kernel frameworks
would be needed anyway with usb-serial being USB based.

Right.

And it means no auto-support. Which would be fine in case of Bus
Pirate, since its mainly a developer device and some people may
actually prefer the IMHO anoying serial interface.

Let's forget that example.
