 copy and analyse the hex difference for a corrupted file system versus freshly saved secrets + hunky dorey
+-- nulls for file entry - like we've erased the file and then rebooted (before writing the replacement)

 retest first secrets.json acces on a new device on tinyUF2 0.18.2 and WS 88, versus tinyUF2 0.20.1 and WS88, then with no-ds-format-nor-file-recreation instead of WS88

+Cleanup eraseCPFS and retest with full file system and no secrets + different bootlog contents. also move write bootlog after secrets processing if not already
 
 then add the metro-s3
