Officially out of luck? I've read in multiple places they are looking into it and will release a patch

  The question was what happens if your device is bricked. Bricked means you are unable to even apply a patch and need to take the device in for servicing or replacement. If you are able to apply an update yourself, your device is not bricked.

    This bug hasn't caused any devices to get bricked either. The title is wrong. The recovery menu is accessible, so is definitely patchable.

      Correct with respect to the issue discussed in the article. Though I was answering the related hypothetical question "What happens if an official update bricks your device and the warranty expired?".
