RM57L843: Inconsistency in datasheet (and HalCoGen) ?

Part Number: RM57L843
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: HALCOGEN

Hi 

References:

* SPNS215C –FEBRUARY 2014–REVISED JUNE 2016

* HalCoGen 4.07.00.

I am currently verifying our pinouts for a project with source code, running through all pins one at a time.

I am wondering if there might be some inconsistencies in the documentation (and HalCoGen), or maybe this is just me?

As an example I will look at pin B8 (and M2)

In section 4.1 ZWT BGA Package Ball-Map (337 Terminal Grid Array),   pin M2 is listed as GIOB[0]  &  pin B8 is listed as reserved 

In table Table 4-28. Input Multiplexing  pin B8 is listed as an Alternate Terminal for GIOB[0], default terminal is M2

1. Why is pin B8 listed as reserved? Shouldn't it be something like "Alt. GIOB[0]"?

2. Pin B8 is not listed anywhere else in the doc., I would have thought it would be listed in a table like M2 is listed in 4.2.1.8 General-Purpose Input / Output (GIO)  ?
E.g. a pin terminal description like M2.

3. In HalCoGen -> Pin muxing, B8 is listed but not M2? Should it not have been M2?
