Ford only updates modules as needed by specific problems and satisfying a list of conditions. (outside of what limited updates are addressed by OTA)
To Ford, most of these module updates seem to be a "repair". Maybe that makes sense by Ford's model, because the module update procedure, at least for now appears to be very time consuming.
This policy (software update as a repair (SUAAR, acronym pronounced as "sour")) seems like an odd approach, especially when compared to other industries, which just update everyone and everything to the latest versions. (either by auto-update, or by user request)
