I can see that it might get in the way of recovering from an abnormal situation.

So that is probably a good bit of 'safety advice' to anyone messing around with the internals.
Agreed. Get rid of a passcode before changing anything on rootfs, until you are done and it is proven to be reliable. This makes it easier to repair if you break something on rootfs. I never passcode mine though, so the thought of this extra step did not occur to me until learning it from somebody who does use a passcode.
