If a flash page already contains all '1' bits, does erasing count against the limit?

For nRF52832 if a flash page already contains all '1' bits, does erasing count against the limit?

Hi Justin

When you erase it, you set all bits that are 0 to 1 again. If they are 1, nothing happens with that cell.

Thanks Amanda. So to further understand the 10,000 cycles write count won't be reduced and there will be no wear and tear of flash.

Yes, that is right.
