    Compiler errors?
    try to write or read past available eeprom - no errors will be given
    I know, this may be called not a bug, but a feature, but even on ancient ZX Spectrum there was an error code "Index out of range"

    Yes, because - as we've discussed before - your beloved old ZX Spectrum (RIP Sr.Clive) ran a BASIC interpreter so it COULD check such things at runtime.

    With PBP there is no interpreter running, it's COMPILED code so there is no way for the compiler to know, before hand, that value n that you just read from an external EEPROM points outside of an array.
