2023.11 Remote Software Update....better steering feel?

Does anyone else feel like the recent 2023.11 remote software update improved the steering feel? Or am I just dreaming of my old E9X's feel and having an anecdotal experience here?

I feel like it changed in Comfort and Sport for the better; it seems far less numb at lower speeds.

I haven't felt anything like that. Also some people feel smoother START/STOP function - I don't find a difference unfortunately.

I haven't felt a difference in steering, although I had a "Changed Steering Effort: error come up but not come back after restart.

I do feel better start/stop performance. Much less noticeable than before.

Definitely feel that, too, less clunky off the line.

I feel the start and stop function transition smoother now. Steering no noticeable difference but I’m sure it’s there.

Yup, Start/Stop is smoother for me after the update, less jumpy. I don't feel any difference in steering

For sure start/stop is MUCH smoother on my 2021 mildhybrid. I was so anti-start/stop that I coded it off completely but after the dealer upgraded my software (as part of a campaign) it feels much more seamless; I hardly ever notice unless paying close attention.

Nothing about steering feel has changed for me.

I did notice a difference in the lane assist and according to the update details they did make a change. Doesn’t jerk the wheel quite as hard when correcting me back into the lane… it’s a smoother pull now rather than a jerk. Was definitely noticeable to me
