 Suspect it would have been safer to use 0x21 and just leave the SD card
/out/ to cause failover to the network.

 Best I could find is:

"""
On board bootrom checks for bootloader recovery file (recovery.bin) on the
SD card. If found, it executes it to flash the EEPROM and recovery.bin
triggers a reset.

 The full text implies that the recovery file is checked for /before/ it
goes to EEPROM bootloader.
