PLoP very quick, but , may be for future more heavy version , for cases PLPBT.ROM it's be convenient to fix usb port addresses so PLOP no need scan and find it.

without scanning, how should the boot manager know what port should used? should the boot manager read your mind?
simply connect your usb drive to the first port that is scanned.

I use PLoP like ROM have always the same PCI card, and memory addresses of port which I can see in DOS USBASPI is always the same
