the layout's hilarious: the PCB is over 50% completely empty. what i haven't done is:
Would it make sense to add a small LiPo battery, to fill the empty space? That way you can swap a card from one housing to another, without the need to reboot.
aiyaaa that's a great idea.... except i'd have to add back in the battery-charging circuits i just removed, and it would add quite a bit to the bom..... and would mean special certifications for shipping would be needed - testing for batteries: crush, destruction, all great stuff to watch but ultimately really rather costly.
