I have owned and tuned both Tweezer and Quarterhorse enhanced EEC systems. You are simply uninformed about the way the add on units interact with the base system processor. Your assertion that add-on electronics can change the basic strategy limits engineered in by Ford is incorrect. Add on processors simply do not change the basic architecture of the OEM strategy code. Their primary benefit is that they allow you access to the features in a less painful manner and in the case of Quarterhorse virtually everything in the OEM ECU, in a real time fashion as the engine is running.

That said, this whole discussion is still off topic for this thread and adds nothing to the OP's original discussion about firing order(s). If you want to pursue this sort of topic why not start a thread of your own for discussion purposes and stop misusing the OP's firing order thread?
