Yes I discovered that and as I have the physical profile of a chinese budha I did briefly fear for my life as I flung myself out of the car to prevent disembowelment - it did however fix my problem with seats fully reclining when changing driver profilesJust to add, performing the seat calibration screws your saved positions up! Also if you're not very flexible I'd get out of the seat while it performs it

This really isn’t a thing. Anecdotal evidence, my own experience included, is that over this past year many new owners have received software updates either the day of collection or certainly within days of collection.
Whereas others have certainly had to wait 3+ weeks on software that was multiple revisions old before they were offered an update. Q3 21 seemed to be one of those periods when people had to wait a long time.
Maybe the car has to be born before an update is released for it to be included in the rollout schedule and they aren’t added retrospectively, so you have to wait for the next one to be released before you get an update. Maybe some updates are deemed critical and are pushed out quickly to all vehicles, even the new ones, so if you happen to take delivery when one of those updates is being rolled out you will be included. Who knows, Tesla aren’t transparent with how update scheduling works.

I can confirm I received an update within 48 hours of taking ownership. It was also only one update out from new. Busts the myth that new cars have “old stable software” and that software upgrades are delayed.
Why would having worked on over 200 cars give you any particular insight as to when new owners first get a firmware update?
OP: I got my first update within 24 hours too

It’s a bizarre claim that some people feel it’s a hill they’re willing to die on. I personally don’t understand it. Many new owners have reported receiving updates within days of collection/delivery, so it’s certainly not a certainty that new cars don’t receive updates for at least a month.Why would having worked on over 200 cars give you any particular insight as to when new owners first get a firmware update?

It may just be down to when the update Dept get batch updates on what cars are now sold to customers.

You talked to 200 new owners about when they got their first update? Were you doing a survey or did it came up in casual conversation?
Press X to doubt.
