It works pretty much like a9lh, but you don't need a 2.1 downgrade needed to install. Still need ARM9 hax or some other direct NAND access.

That's it really.

You state the bare minimum. The ability to be able to unban yourself is one of them too, apparently.

What is the advantage of SigHax?
Faster boot times?
Custom OS? i'm in for that!
The biggest advantage is to those who don't have a9lh already. You don't need a9 access to install it, just dsiwarehax or hardmod. This makes installation on 11.3 and higher firms feasible. It's also more convenient/less risky than a9lh installation because you don't have to downgrade to 2.1. It can install "in place" from dsi mode itself.

It seems plausible but I can't confirm it. It might be a bootrom thing and not specifically about sighax.

You may also be able to rely on the the FIRM partition redundancy. If installation to FIRM0 fails then FIRM1 should still be bootable. a9lh requires that both be delicately screwed up.
