One thing that does puzzle me, is even if the control pcb is replaced, the
replacement controller won't have the correct flaw map !

Surely this is stored on the HDA and not the controller PCB?
Ppl may not know about
this stuff if they've never had to low level format a drive. These days
it's done
at the factory you see.

Not many people know the joy of prodding around using debug to find the
LLF code entry point on a controller you have no documents for... Ahh,
happy days.
