+         * response type, via the ExpectedResponseType alias.
+         *
+         * This alias is used by template functions such as CmsisDapInterface::sendCommandAndWaitForResponse(), to

+         * to perform any downcasting with our response objects, and the type of our response objects is known at
+         * compile time.
+         *
+         * For example, consider the AvrResponseCommand - this is a CMSIS-DAP vendor command which requests an AVR
+         * response from the device. Upon issuing this command, we expect the device to respond with data in the
+         * structure described by the AvrResponse class. So, in the AvrResponseCommand class, we set the

+         *
+         *   CmsisDapInterface cmsisInterface;

+         *
+         * In the code above, the response object will be an instance of the AvrResponse class, because the
+         * CmsisDapInterface::sendCommandAndWaitForResponse() function will use the ExpectedResponseType alias from
+         * the command class (AvrResponseCommand::ExpectedResponseType).
+         *
+         * Effectively, the ExpectedResponseType alias allows us to map CMSIS-DAP command classes to response classes.
+         * This mapping is employed by the necessary functions to provide us with response objects of the correct type,
+         * improving type safety and type hinting.
+         *
+         * For more on this, see the implementation of the following template functions:
