As someone who actually work with FPGA chips I can assure everyone that
those are always to small even when you pick one that seems insanely
large when you start. I have many times been in a situation when is
could work quite well to have mutually exclusive subsystem but what has
stopped that before is that the chips/software usually do not support
partial reconfiguration and you usually can't reconfigure the whole part
without disturbing normal functions.
