Will Nikon pull their Z8 3.0 firmware update and replace it with 3.01 due to all the 3rd party lens issues?

UPDATE: I was correct https://www.robertallen-photography.com/blog/nikon-replaces-their-latest-z8-firmware I’m waiting for Nikon to announce a new Z8 firmware update to replace the original 3.0 update due to all the 3rd party lens issues. I don’t believe that Nikon will let 3rd party licensed lens manufactures such as Tamron and Viltrox to fend for them self’s and try to figure this out on their own. If their lenses have been approved by Nikon for use on their camera bodies then Nikon should fix the issue.
I upgraded my Z8 to 3.0 with no issues. I made sure no lens was attached to avoid any issues.
Let me know in the comments below (no sign-in required to leave a comment) if you have had any issues with version 3.0.
