Hmmm... I'm not totally sure how the port-to-device mappings occur - I think
it's based on the IO address more than anything, so it's possible that you
would just lose ttyS0 rather than them shuffling down to fill the gap.

Well, you know, that's possible - after all, after disabling COM1 in the
BIOS, I'm left with a ttyS1 and a ttyS2 - if COM1 were truly gone,
shouldn't I have a ttyS0 and a ttyS1?
