Hard / soft bricked is already conventional for phones and consoles (most mainstream products, unsurprisingly). I kinda like "cold bricked" personally. - soft: need some sysadmin mojo, USB adb etc. - hard: can be fixed with soldering, physical repair of sorts. - cold: will never again work even if you're Louis Rossman (maybe as a ship of theseus). Think CPU fried.
