If I understand you correctly, Why bother adding additional functions or data to
the existing version? It's always a practice for X431.com to release new version
to supersede all the old versions, why change the system now if that's what
X431.com is doing that you think they are doing. I personally don't think so. I think
they made a mistake & a member who re-post has no 2nd thought what's going on.
The software can be re-written, and other times it is an additional function that is added to the sequences of software--this is just how software coding is written. Once in a while there's a glitch in the new updates, and if we can identify the exact issue (ex: No option for ABS and a 2000 Opel in the software) than the software engineers can pin-point and fix that line of code in the software. To prevent this issue from effecting many users, Launch tries to repair the issue whilst removing said version.
