But wait, they earlier said it was an intended security feature. Now they're saying that it was a factory test not intended to go public? New personal rule: never update the phone again... ever.

It is a security feature that your TouchID is disabled when the phone detects a non-official/verified sensor but it wasn't intended to brick the phone, just disabled TouchID. There was a bug that ONLY affected people who update using iTunes (this is rarer than you might think) as it's a diagnostics tool they use in factories where they WANT to get the error 53, they didn't intend that to get out to customers.
