Yeah I just noticed that was enabled, apparently it causes many soft bricks. I disabled it, as well as enabling the BIOS Auto-Recovery selection from the boot menu. Reset a few times, seems to be working for now. Completed the CMOS clearing procedure, full depowering, and RAM removal as well, before it booted normally. Thank you, hopefully there are no more boot issues.
Bios updates should never be run concurrently with updates from other programs, especially updates that require a restart.
I'd suggest you disable uefi capsule updates so that auto bios updates only come automatically though Dell, and then change settings for Dell from auto update to notify me when available.

By some miracle I have it on, but no telling for how long. Won't be turning it off until this is resolved.

Where did you get the BIOS from? Windows update, or DELL update?

Dell update, from the support assist program I believe. Windows also updated at that time.
