e, e, for extras,erase is suboptimal! you easily bounce 'e' key. Make that anything different. I'd even suggest to have only UPERCASE command keys in extras menu, so you need to hold shift to 'confirm' you meant to do that.

in backup process (and other context as well?) there's a "depress hold switch..." statement. What is hold-switch? The sliding switch on right side of device is usually referred to as the lock-switch

fsck after creating backup results in
Checking the OptFS...
Errors may have been encountered: code: 8
e2fsck: Only one of the options -p/-a, -n or -
y may be specified.
Press any key to continue...

Might be worth a note that obviously during backup-menu battery charging isn't enabled

There's obviously no way to exit backup-menu and continue with normal bootup to system, just 'q' (quit) and "hold-switch" (which is lock-switch, and doesn't work when kbd-slider closed :-/). It would be *very* nice if lockswitch would work with closed kbd-slider as well, and wouldn't reboot device (i.e. do NOT go to NOLO again), but actually would boot up to normal system.
