My personal experience was that the internal memory got garbled a bit.
So I did a factory reset, and everything was back to normal. So no,
there's no way to lose the factory presets, because they're stored in
some sort of fixed memory.

You can, but in your case it's not necessary. Suppose that you would
have a bunch of your own presets, and no way to save them, then you
could keep the power on. But then you'd be mucking about with a
screwdriver over a powered printed circuit board, with a chance of
causing a short-circuit.
