The rule as I stated is shown in that chart very clearly until LTO8. At
least according to the chart an LTO8 drive will Read and Write LTO7 and
8 but will not read an LTO6. That is the first exception to the rule.
The chart is a little messy because they included WORM media which adds
rows but every generation until LTO8 follows the rule.

Larry,
This rule: "So short summary, the old 'Read back two write back one' rule
is off the
table going forward." was never true. At least according to the chart I
posted yesterday.
