Not doing it will irritate more people (i.e. "I'm not getting full speed
out of the SD card). While it's a valid concern, I don't think it's
unrealistic to assume that all 4 DAT lines are hooked up. I've not yet
encountered a design that A) had SD capabilities, B) was only running
single bit because of a lack of GPIOs.
