> On that same topic, would it not be a good idea for the bootblock to conditionally set a global parameter to output over slower consoles. For instance if the bootblock detects X amount of failures set that parameter that affects next stages.

Many aspects with consoles were hard and complicated with LATE_CBMEM_INIT and CAR_GLOBAL_MIGRATION around. Today, such runtime enablements should be easy and clean to accomplish, even more so after CAR_GLOBAL removal.
