On the one hand, you're right - SSDs actually *do* lie about their 512n/AF-512e/AF-4Kn designation. On the other hand, SSD erase blocks - and even program blocks - are larger than 4KB, so neither AF-* designation would be correct anyway. And to some extent, it doesn't matter for SSDs, since everything is so heavily indirected anyway.
