That doesn't make any sense, SD card boot is really valuable and even
appears in the U-Boot menu, what's the point of breaking it?  SD Card
boot is very nice for customers and definitely not some weird low level
thing.

For example, customers can choose to give community builds a test run
like that without nuking the NAND with it.  Of course it should not be
broken in normal builds.
