I realize this might be a stupid question, but I just want confirmation:
the factory image will /delete/ every data, the OTA image will act as if
it's a "real" OTA update and (in principle) none of the data is lost,
yes?

I checked <https://developer.android.com/studio/command-line/adb.html>
and I can't find a download for the adb tool. I searched and there seem
to be several of those tools. Which should I use and where can I find
it?

I have a Nexus 5X, build NRD90M (freshly installed on Sept 8), so I
would need:

7.0.0 (NRD90S)
<https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/bullhead-ota-nrd90s-11bca8c7.zip>

I search and found this video:
How to Use ADB to Sideload an OTA onto Your Nexus 
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RK4zvbDcRUs>

It doesn't say anything about enabling USB debugging (I enabled
developer options, so enabling this should be a piece of cake), but this
should work for my Nexus 5X, no?

The OTA August update was received on Sept 8 and I'm not sure I want to
wait until October until I receive the September update. Especially with
this WiFi problem. I'm not a complete layman; I used Odin to root my
Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini, so...
