Very nice. And eMMC can be bulky too, I'm so scared to dremel this plexi so that the case doesn't crush this IC, marked by blue: https://imgur.com/VQNV7Bp https://imgur.com/VQNV7Bp Relatedly wouldn't it suck for the RPi5 to introduce another breaking design to the case ecosystem for the minority group that is already served by the Compute Module?

I doubt there are good SD-cards for this use case. And finding a good flash drive can be really hard. Minority group? Given the target audience I'd say we are talking about the absolute majority.

  No, eMMC is a minority. Do you even Netboot?

    Of course it is, since it isn't offered.

      It is offered, on the Compute Module.
