Good post.
For the record, this is how the network engineers work now.
No one connects to the console port except for the first time. Everything is managed through the network with ssh (mostly ansible or similar configuration management tool).
Specially with everything being on the cloud/datacenters, we do not have console access to most devices. It's almost always ssh.
And believe me, networks does not go down that easy.
Even OS installation for new servers are done over the network. (Personal experience)
