Okay.

Sure.

Good point. I found the description below in UEFI section 3.1.1:
        Each load option entry resides in a Boot####, Driver####,
        SysPrep####, OsRecovery####
        or PlatformRecovery#### variable where #### is replaced by
        a unique option number in
        printable hexadecimal representation using the digits 0-9,
        and the upper case versions of the
        characters A-F (0000-FFFF).

Okay.

Will manage that.
