Booting from the spi flash with SD over eMMC preference still does have an advantage: it makes it possible to wipe-out or re-partition the eMMC, and even if something is messed up it will be still able to recover without the need of a screwdriver.
There is a catch, though - if you mess up u-boot in the SPI flash then you will be in trouble. I think that on RockPro the boot priority is selectable using a jumper. So I wonder - what's the boot priority on PBP and is it also jumper selectable?
