Let’s take the 0x29/0x52 question first, because it's a very common question. And it's confusing.
The I2C uses the LSB in a 8-bit byte an the Write/Read bit.
So, if your 7-bit address is 0x29, you shift it left one bit and append the Write/Read bit.
Thus, one can specify the Sensor address as 0x29, or the Write address as 0x52 and the Read address as 0x53.
These are all equivalent.
You are right about the incrementing addresses. We could have done that with one multi-byte write.
But our mandate was to build the simplest driver we could possibly think of, and you only do this operation one time.
That is why we used Dev as a I2C address and not a structure - like everyone else.
(That was a very controversial decision, to be sure. You won't find any other structures in there either - for the same reason. )
