That could be an argument in favor of different representation, so
present that exact case - comparison of bindings and driver in two cases.

Existing patch does not support this so far. Existing
patch/code/proposal clearly points to mapping that index of entry is
sufficient enough. Happy to see different code - make your case, please.
