Alright, better late than never, I went and did some more testing in regards to stability.
Result: after about 15 exploit attempts, all but 1 worked first try with zero issues (using gold hen as payload, sent via netcat).
I did pull the updates which have been as fresh as half a month ago, so stability might have improved even further because of that (the one failed attempt was using the initial release.
Testing setup:
PS4 Pro (CUH-7000 series) on 9.00
Exploit hosted locally on a raspi (from ChendoChaps repo, no repacks)
USB Drive using the "large" exFAT image
Notes:
PS4 has never had a PSN account connected/linked to it.
Homebrew launches fine (tested with Patch Installer and Payload Guest).
Disc based games (with sideloaded updates, either by hand or via Patch Installer) work fine.
fPKGs have not been tested.

As for this, the exploit notification explicitly tells you to remove the drive after you close the notification, the github readme also explicitly states that you have a high risk of corrupting the heap if you have the drive attached at boot. So if you encounter issues with the drive left in all the time, that is entirely on you. (I attach and detach the drive as asked by the exploit, keeping it in only for as long as needed).BTW, easy way to trigger KPs is to leave the jb USB drive plugged in and restart the console.
