Let's say we are not using DFU and we want to flash u-boot.imx in the SD card of mx6qsabresd, for example. In this case, we simply do:
dd if=u-boot.imx of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1k seek=1
and the new u-boot.imx is flashed in the SD card, and the env vars are not touched.
Same happens with DFU, so that's why I include the ' env default -f -a' in the instructions.
Not sure if I understand the issue you are trying to describe.

Sorry; now it is clear. You need the env to DFU to work.
