Description

I was looking at this library after reading the PCF85063A has the same commandset with different register offset/layout (i forget) and no century flag.

Looks like it hasn't been true since

Research direction

Start by reading lines 11-12 of adafruit_pcf8563/pcf8563.py and compare them with the referenced commit. Clarify whether the file still claims to provide a base RTC class, then update the relevant wording or structure so it matches the current implementation; done means the code no longer makes that inaccurate suggestion.
