My main concern is if I run swap on microsd xclusively and it dies or somehow is unavailable the device won't boot making impossible to take a corrective action.

@mr_pingu
Why do you do it every night?
I do it as my swap reaches (configurable) threshold of swap size. So I just swap when needed, start swap action with nice 19 and it lags abit, but it is fully okay/respondable (OK, you should not try to open multiple browser windows at that time, swapping swap space takes a few minutes ...).

Said short: Set it up once, never bother anymore, it just works. That's why I prefer ereswap over FlopSwap.. Besides I dont have 3 swap partitions. However the way FlopSwap goes, is cleaner than Ereswap's way...
It's true, that adding separate script on /etc/event.d/ is "cleaner", in a way that it have less chances or messing something up
Hoever, without modifying rcS_late, we have situation, where one script enables regular swap on eMMC, and another one disables it, just a moment later. It makes booting a little longer due to unnecessary operation being performed (although, in practice, it's hardly-to-non noticeable), but most importantly, just don't match my aesthetic, and can create problems, if one decide to go without any eMMC swap, at all.
That's why I've decided to go with the way of sed-modifying rcS-late, which was paincfully more hard to write, than just adding another script to /etc/event.d/, especially, that they way sed command was written, tries to be compatible with modified rcS-late's, too (unless the very swap lines vere touched, but in that case, one wouldn't need ereswap, probably).
After all, we have major respected packages touching boot-critical script - including things from CSSU - so why should we restrain ourselves
