Thank you. I really hate how watered down the term "bricked" has become.

I prefer the term borked in these situations

being unable to drive my vehicle due to a software update is bricking. It's also a pun, us Jeep owners call our Jeep's flying bricks.

Being temporarily unusable is not how I've seen "bricked" used, bricked means unrecoverable and the item is completely unusable except for as a brick/paperweight/door stop.

If you can do something, anything, to the vehicle to repair it, then it's not bricked.
