I ran across your slideshow by chance (without the talk), so its unclear if this was addressed. If these were addressed verbally, please feel free to disregard this post and close the issue.
The process you outline only really works for NOR SPI interfaced memory. There is a growing number of cheap large managed-NAND chips that utilize flash translation layers for wear leveling in place of NOR SPI, and they are packaged using many of the same footprints.
As a result of the memory type differences, the dump you get from these may not actually be viable for bootstrapping recovery depending on the implementation (i.e. the dump may be larger than the chip size, or a number of other off-looking situations such as a pages being repeatedly copied multiple times to avoid an erase on the page, or non-standard MSR calls needed to alter service areas (i.e. corrective coding).
It may not immediately be clear this is the case if you cannot identify the chip or its various parameters (no markings, or available datasheets), and many people getting started in this don't make a distinction between NOR & NAND.
If you choose to do an update of this talk at sometime in the future, you may want to include something about the differences between NOR, NAND, and managed-NAND for firmware dumping. There's a Micron paper, and a number of good blogs related to DFIR with NAND if you haven't delved into this area. j-michel.org had a few posts (a post and a QA) that contained some useful background dated 2014.
Also, as feedback, it might be cool to briefly mention some common gotchas (like the Ch341a 1v8 adapter from amazon occasionally pulsing its data lines at 5v). Forming and relaying proper methodology to avoid needless damage is important.
Additionally, sometimes that SPI interface is in a really inconvenient place as well, where it may require multiple diss-assemblies/reassemblies to get to or debug; it would be a cool project idea if there was a way to add a connector extension to solve that issue without breaking or compromising the circuit. A lot of people aren't that confident in their electrical/radio knowledge to modify those type of circuits for fear of causing excessive EMI that might get someone in trouble, or damaging the equipment (from slow charge buildup, induction, or potential case/ground shorts).
