netstat -rn shows two default gateways of course, but I can't seem to

smitty tcpip -> STatic Routed -> Delete a static route

confirm with lsattr -El inet0, there are the static routes listed, also
the dafault gateways

I "route delete default (our bogus ip)" to delete it and have tried to
reset it to the "real" gateway in smit tcpip, but it still comes back
as the bogus default route after a reboot.

This is only a temporary measure, remember the ODM.

1. Was there a better way to have handled the "no route" between nics
and not have a default gateway?

You forgot to remove the default route permanently.

2. How can I permanently set that adapter back to "nothing" (i.e. like
it is when you've just installed)?

rmdev -Rdl enX
cfgmgr
