I'm going to take the opposite position - If the ROM Is hosed in the field,

it's not for a hosed rom. It's for a hosed usb stick, that partly works, or a hosed NAND flash, or other stuff you might want to do. And recall that many of the uber hackers are going to be kids -- we hope.

This is supposed to be a hackable platform, not Windows for Dummies :-)
