Assembly = computing language, nothing to do with G-code.
Yeah, it's been a little over 4½ years since I've done any coding myself. I found myself looking at the second link going WTF?

EK released their top somewhere around June/July of this year, to release a newer version in December just shows that they willingly got close to stock top performance, called it close enough and shipped it just to be able to say they were first to the market with a "usable" top (as opposed to Koolance's "unusable" top). The major reason ppl are going to be upset is that the top as it is now, is on par with the stock top and EK is now mentioning an "improved" top. If they had kept working on performance improvements on the first top, they would probably be releasing about now and had a better product for it. Too many products these days are being shipped without proper testing or known flaws and the manufacturer just brushes off and says, "we'll fix it in Rev. x".
