If you have problem (or had problems straight from the beginning) then yes, you should try latest drivers (you have not much choice).
If you had system working fine for some time then there is in most cases no need at all to chase latest drivers.
Read 1st post, which quite clearly negates your advice against my advice
Latest doesn't mean the best at all, specially wen you have older model and latest release just adds support for new ones.
BM is poor with their releases- their first next major version is basically guaranteed to be full of problems. You can update if you have a serious problem or if new drive adds something new and useful for your workflow. Otherwise it's pointless to update- you just asking yourself for a problems
Maybe for you it's not a problem, but when you are an admin of many systems with BM cards (in real production environment) then it's a different story
