No it is not needed.  Any future releases won't include it.  The original purpose was part of an attempt to make it easier on the author of Rufus.  It is a great tool for creating bootable USB disks.

As the author of Rufus, thanks.

I certainly appreciate your going out of your way to publish ready-made binaries for me but as I mentioned here https://github.com/pbatard/rufus/pull/1740#issuecomment-850379228, I don't really have much need for something like this, when I can just continue to edit the FORCELBA option myself, and at the same time, reassure folks using the Rufus version of FreeCOM that the only difference with the standard binary is that one bit.

Thanks again for releasing the new versions of kernel and FreeCOM!

Regards,

/Pete
