simon the only point i was making is that the esl is indeed a physical piggyback which you agreed to did you not.
yes we all know it works in a different way to the OPs chip ect ect as it stores a full map not just changes perameters.
the bottom line here is it does mount the oe ecu thus being classed as a physical piggyback which in no technical terms can be denied.

but thats not the definition of a piggyback ecu, its physical form has no bearing on what it is.

Simon is right;
A "piggyback" ECU alters the signals between the OE ECU and the engine sensors and actuators. The ESL board does not do this and is therefore not a piggyback ECU.
The ESL ECU converts an OE ECU into a mappable standalone ECU.
I hope that is clear, although I thought Simons' explanation was already clear tbh.
