It was not from lack of trying :-o

Does the erase action do anything at all, if flash memory has already been erased?

The reason for asking is that I did not flash it nearly as much as I erased it. I understand the flash (write) limit as you explain, but over the course of my initial experiments the number of erase cycles easily exceeded those by 10x. Still, I think those erase cycles (or attempts at erase cycles) was < 200 or so. The total number of actual, successful flash (programming) events was ten or fifteen. No more than that.
