Well, complexity is in the eye of the beholder.
With /boot on sd - it is only used at boot.

But as i pointed out in my post,
rp3 and rp3+ can boot from usb.
Then you don't need sd-card at all.

Why would USB itself break before the harddrive?
Power efficiency was not part of your original post.
But a harddrive - or ssd  - powered by USB - is that worse than anything 
else power wise?

Anyway - this is not related to Ada anymore
