The above is slightly incorrect. The usb stick subsequently plugged in
to make it boot was 13.1-RELEASE. timestamps on the files are dated May
12 2022. 

So for clarity, a newly installed 13-stable system zfs on root
would not boot unless a 13-RELEASE installer img was plugged in *after*
the bios screen (which flickered a cursor then went blank until the usb
stick was plugged in)
