If this really wasn't "necessary", I'll go back to Meridian (somehow) and ask why it was disabled and if it can be retroactively fixed.

Thanks.
If I remember correctly 808.3 to 808.5 included ID40 to ID41 card swap. I could be wrong but card must have been removed and replaced. You should have also been left with ID40 Card, SMPS and redundant rear panels.
This sounds very odd to me.
