If I may...
When people ask for a new BIOS, it doesn't necessarily mean that there is something wrong or they are having issues. That is for Asus forum.
It is expected from you (not personally you, but Asus) to fix problems and you never fail to do so, if my mind serves me well.
But...
We here (if I'm at liberty to speak for everyone) usually ask for some improvements that we know can be done, cause some other manufacturer did it, or some superuser did.
I remember three things asked, but never got the answer:
1. QPI VTT control
2. HPET deactivation
3. SATA firmwares update
"No" is the answer too, but we never got it.
If something can't be done, like QPI VTT control maybe, cause of HW limitations, we expect to get the answer.
HPET and SATA "issues" were proven possible by BIOS modding and you never did anything or said anything. Again, not you personally, but I'm saying all this to you personally cause I followed your work before you were @Asus and you were always helpful and that didn't change now when you are @Asus.
IMO, people appreciate truth and openness, so if you say something will not be done, everyone will respect you (Asus) for saying so, rather then staying silent or lie.
Lie is the worst thing of all, makes company loose respect and credibility, like creative* did by saying, I'm paraphrasing "no, our old HW can't work on Win7, you must buy our new HW" and a guy proved them wrong - or should I say, caught them in big lie, just with small driver modification.
*no, it is not syntax error (capital first letter), it's disrespect.
