I have an Intel STK1A32SC Compute Stick... and a baaad case of The Stubborns

somehow I always 'forget' until just after it's too late that (a) the slightest application of heat to the power button shorts it internally, permanently, rendering the system unbootable, and (b) removing the button entirely, being a tiny tiny tiny momentary 'tact' switch, and surface-mount to boot, invariably destroys the support circuit for it, immediately adjacent.
Ooooops
I can read datasheets and understand electronics reasonably well; the AXP288 is the PMIC -- power management...
