Ever since my last update at the dealer my car ('19 comp) no longer short shifts in 1st when launching and my 1/4 mile times are very consistent. It will immediately shift out of second into 3rd if you are spinning too much now though.

So it does seem like they are updating things from time to time

The 2020+ m5 and m8 have a slightly different transmission which never seemed to have the above issue

Evolve also has a TCU tune that seems to fix this issue if you already tuned
Nah
Wouldn't mind a tune if provides warranty and last time I checked now do for M8
