This is really not obvious. I do not think we'd see any performance
degradation if we actually read the whole last touchpoint.

I am not sure I follow this. We do not reference anything past
rdbuf[(MAX_SUPPORT_POINTS - 1) * tplen + offset] and
our offset takes care of the start position, so why exactly we need the
+1? Ah, CRC is in the extra byte.

Can we unify the calculation to be:

datalen = tplen * MAX_SUPPORT_POINTS + offset + crc_len;

By the way, what version of firmware you tested your changes with?

Thanks.
