It definitely does look like it's the same thing William addresses and never would've thought of using Add-VirtualSwitchPhysicalNetworkAdapter for this. I'm surprised that it doesn't bomb out with the pNICs assigned to the vDS already, but then again if I would've just RTFM then I would've seen the critical piece:
"This cmdlet adds a host physical NIC to a standard virtual switch. If VMHost virtual network adapters are specified, the cmdlet migrates them to the virtual switch as well.
Note: If VMHost virtual network adapters are specified, the cmdlet migrates them to the respective port groups or creates new ones if VirtualNicPortgroup is not specified."
So it seems that there's more hidden features in the cmdlet than one would assume with it using the ADD verb. Lesson learned.
Thanks for the response!
