*Where* do you see this and get this number from?  If it's "data" then
data encompasses data placed into flash, IIRC.

Depends upon how the case statement is codegen'd.  If it's a table-based
approach, I would expect a table in flash with a number of entries.  If
it's if-then-else'd then it will bot have a table in flash.  Adding a
single case element is enough to switch between the two, I would guess.
