Hi igor, just one more note:

Yup, that was because it was an interior "hole" boundary, so just that one edge defined an entire trim loop.

That's because you were probably not selecting the entire trim boundary, the seam is basically like one of the "outermost" natural edges of the surface, when something intersects it, it becomes part of a longer loop for the exterior trim boundary rather than an interior hole trim.

To remove a boundary you need to select all of its edges (and they must not be attached to any other surface), so in this case with the piece that intersects the seam you must select the seam edges, and the top/bottom edges as well since they are all part of that trim boundary.
