The only way to fix this was, of course, the nuclear option of On-Backspace, which also wipes extended memory.

CLKEYS clear all key assignment.
ALMCAT then R/S to pause catalog then [GOLD] [C] on each alarm to clear them.
Removing all modules with a power cycle should removed all buffers related to these modules.

Good tips, thanks. I'll try those steps if I get myself in trouble again.

That can be done but you have to seriously know your way around.

I definitely don't.
