Would it make sense to add a serial EEPROM to an AT90S8515?

hello,

i brief: 8515 has 8k of flash , have 24lc256 chip kicking around.
since implementing i2c needs done in software, should bother, since use bytes?
i don't think it's possible run code eeprom, use data.

i don't have project in mind, planning ahead.

any thoughts?
thank you.

correct, can't run code eeprom.
wire.h library take room.
atmega1284p has 16k sram, 128k flash. step '328p without going far more expensive mega.

looking @ the at90s8515, atmega1284p chip looks great alternative. same pinout, more memory, 2nd serial port, same pinout, plus adc.
