I thought I could modify a boot entry like so:

$ efibootmgr --disk /dev/nvme0n1 --part 5 --bootnum 0000 --unicode 'root=PARTUUID=... rw initrd=\initramfs-linux.img'

But it turns out it doesn't work this way, and I have to delete the entry first. A better description would probably be:

Provide a bootnum for --active, --inactive, --delete, --create, ...

And if there're 2 categories of options (commands and options), it's best to separate them.
