I am a commiter to T2 and don't know how OpenEmbedded works. The T2 architect claims OpenEmbedded is a pain in the ass to use. (Sorry, these are not my words and I don't intend to start a flame war)

This is a great way of updating a distro to newer releases, but what about trying out new things. One mistake and your device is bricked. Using bootable CF will not brick your device when trying out new things. If new things fail, just remove the CF and reset it and you have the working old thing.
