I guess you could say that. Not that there’s duplicate data on the I2S
bus, but the speaker amp would previously be configured to look for the
left and right channel in the same TDM slot (see e.g. set_tdm_slot of
tas2770 [0]).  (Each speaker amp drives a single speaker, but it still
has a notion of left and right channel.)
