I had not encounter it and hope never will. did saw some ppl in thread having this bootloop issue and send to CS.
seem to be motherboard failure. and I did some google and found out similar to what you said, emmc brickbug in during old time for old Galaxy series.
Bootloop, battery issue actually make me consider to take other manufacture phone, but in the end I can't. LOL
love the new dual pixel camera performance on low light/day time as well, 4k/slow mo, S-pen is the most lovely feature I like (never use note-series), to screenshot, gif, Draw a lots on picture and photo (for fun

). battery last 1 whole day with 4-6h SOT, fast charging 1 hour from 30% to full, UI is beautiful, fingerprint is fast, 4gb/64gb is more than enough (with 64 gb memory card as well)
consider other like Sony (camera algorithm still suck), huawei (UI really... not my type), LG (too exp and hard to find retailer/CS), HTC ( same as LG), VIVO (X7 plus not in Msia yet and no OIS in camera), and Apple I7plus? (no way, most exp and IOS really not user friendly)
Samsung seem offer lots features into one phone, just can't resist.
hope our new batches have no/lower battery and bootloop issue.
I think motherboard failure is the easier to understand term used by samsung representative, rather than emmc brickbug. perhaps i should call it ufs brickbug as it's now using ufs instead of emmc haha.
Yeah same with me, in spite of the bootloop and battery issues I still can't give up on the N7. Camera, battery life, dual sim/SD card, 64gb, and most importantly the amazing QHD display and no side bezels being too sexy is just too much for me to give up. Uncle benny mentioned there is no perfect phone but for me this is my perfect phone, it's everything i ever wanted in a 2016/2017 smartphone.
Just hoping will not get a lemon unit in replacement phone like pink tint, dead pixels etc.

DiGi requires the freebies as well for the exchange?
DiGi called me a week back and mentioned need to return the wireless charger but no mention of battery pack. I even confirmed if i'm hearing it correctly as wireless charger has nothing to do with the internal battery. nevertheless i will get everything ready including freebies to make things go smoothly during the delivery exchange process.
