I would have used a different approach, and just populate the diags /usr/local folder by extracting a data.tar.gz file. But I suppose that could be a problem if new firmware erases that folder. It would be worth a try just to see if it works.
Flashing a partition is easier from fastboot, which is why we do it for simple debricking, but from an update package it seems a bit extreme (and then you need to flash a matching diags kernel too, just to be safe). IMHO.
Of course, your way is guaranteed to work (even if future firmware DOES delete the /usr/local folder), so may be the best option in the end.
