The factory resetting option is a tricky consideration, as the update includes deep security changes (not just bug fixes) and some new features or security hardening which only take full effect after wiping old settings.
Factory resetting is the best, most secure option and also reduces possible connectivity problems, instability etc. I’ve seen a few of these over on Reddit likewise, some users have reported no problems after dirty flash and possible due to the configuration they are using etc.
Security–Performance–Usability Triangle
Conceptual Frameworks for Balancing Tech Trade-offs
- Security often reduces performance.
- Performance improvements can weaken security
- Usability/time constraints may force compromises in both.
