If those drives are capable of acting as if they're compose of SLC RAM, why wouldn't we want them to ALWAYS act as SLC RAM?

Wouldn't that mean only half the space? I think it is still flash, not like RAM.

It sounds like it will act like SLC even past 50% capacity. It moves data to MLC in the background.
