The "-factory" image is like the "-sysupgrade" adapted for being

So, use the "-sysupgrade" file if you're interacting with
OpenWrt/LEDE/LiMe flashing utility (sysupgrade via console or via
OpenWrt/LEDE/LiMe web interface).
Use the "-factory" file if you're interacting with stock firmware
flashing utility (stock firmware web interface) or with bootloader (TFTP
recovery or serial connection, even if the router already has
OpenWrt/LEDE/LiMe installed).

Oh, yes, I'm sorry too, it was properly documented at libremesh.org!! [1]
Now I'm reading too what their difference is [2], but keep wondering how
come the factory image is not good for every purpose. Hi. It is the sysupgrade image!
ops,
sorry..
I didn't know, but checking the docs says:
