Byte-addressability with direct code access is what sets NOR flash apart. NOR memory allows reading and fetching individual bytes and even executing code in place, which makes it ideal for storing firmware and other program code that the processor runs directly from flash. This is why devices use NOR flash to hold the software that boots up and operates, because you can jump to and fetch instructions precisely where they are stored. The other statements don’t capture this practical use. NOR flash tends to be more expensive and offer lower density than NAND, so it isn’t used for high-density storage up to multi-terabyte sizes. It’s also not typically chosen for bulk user data storage, where NAND dominates. While NOR is non-volatile, simply labeling it as non-volatile and reliable doesn’t convey its defining role as page-by-page, byte-addressable code storage.
