And now I need to eat a little crow, while also making another point.
After two days of fighting this thing, I accidentally got a little too enthusiastic while removing an SD card and my screwdriver slipped rather forcefully into the slot.
CLICK.
Turns out the mechanism was jammed, not missing. In turn, this seems to have caused my SD cards to read, but not reliably. Once I fixed this, reset the emmc again and then flipped the switch at just the right moment, all seems to be fine. Lesson learned all around, because there shouldn't be the slippery kind of QC that lets this go without being tested so it doesn't happen to a user.
