Also I could not find a way to downgrade it either.
Stick it on aeroplane mode and wait for someone to jailbreak 5.14.1 - might take a while though. A StreamDeck clone is a cool idea but you'd need to program one yourself as I don't think that anybody has created anything along those lines yet.

I wouldn't bother taking it apart as there's currently no serial jailbreak path and there's no other reason to open it up apart from for repair.
