Software update to "increase robustness..."

I had a message from the Mercedes Benz App that there was a "Software update to increase robustness for driving assistance systems". So I installed it this afternoon. Download took seconds and then the car installed the update after being shutdown and locked - took less than the advertised 15 minutes. Probably just a software patch.

I got that update over the weekend. It prompted me after I deleted and recreated my profile in an attempt to fix the USB music issue I posted in another thread. Based on the description, it's an update to the driver assist package (not an MBUX update). I was hoping it was an MBUX update that fixed my USB issue, but no!

I just got this update notice today and the only change I’ve noticed so far is a red warning graphic added to the drivers screen for the blind spot warning.

"Increased robustness" -- aptly describes my ex's spending (lol).
