So basically, just in case I am missing something, this will allow people to have a bubble on 3.35 when a public exploit is released that allows them to run PSPFiler?

And for people who already have access to an exploit on 3.18<, they will be using the TN-V/ARK launcher because they have a kernel exploit.

If I'm wrong, please explain because I'm not very clear on what this work allows people to do at this time (3.35-lockdown).

Pretty sure that without a new kxploit ARK or TN-V will be nerfed. I have VHBL, ARK and Vita FTP bubbles working on my 3.18 Talkman Tokyo vita. I backed up my card and restored it to my 3.35 which I don't have any user or kernel exploits for. Only vita FTP bubble worked on it. Actually didn't have VHBL Bubble created yet when tested so unsure if that will transfer over and work. Since it's only a brew loader might work fine. May test later.

Basically, you can set this up, then update to 3.35 and keep access to VHBL (as is my understanding). At least if you have a way of accessing Filer and FTP you can make more bubbles for things. I'll be making bubbles for those as backups in case VHBL doesn't work once I update (though from what I've seen it should be fine)

Not sure if it's related (or even possible to be related), but I now get error C1-2858-3 with ARK after installing a VHBL bubble. Is there something that VHBL installation does to kill ARK? I'm on 3.18 using TalkMan kxploit. I had working ARK and Vita FTP bubbles prior to installing VHBL bubble. The other two still work, but ARK does not. Tried reinstalling my fake EBOOT and PBOOT and still nothing... Hmmm....

installed guidobot's 138 menu for ARK and it works again... Strange.

It is not wise to update your Vita after you make your custom bubbles. Always have a backup Vita to test your bubbles

I've noticed that after you rebuild and create your custom bubble, a new hidden file is saved on the Vita. It appears corrupted on CMA, so you can't copy it onto your PC. But you must also leave it in your Vita because when you delete it, it'll cause your bubble to stop functioning by coming up with the C... error or tell you to re-download the game.
