My thoughts on that:

Try as hard as we can and you well come up short on making software
correct in the beginning as it is an iterative process.  Be glad you
have found and fixed yet another small problem, and hope that in
doing so you have not introduced another.

I thank you for your persuit of this latent issue in loader.efi!
