We {at least most of us} understand that, but the question may become whether any 'fix' is appropriate.
I got several lenses with aperture-rings and set aperture on the lens.
If Pentax releases a few more KAF4 lenses, modifying the firmware will also become a feasible way of having the K-30 body control the aperture seamlessly.
But you are right about the topic of
this thread, so I will say nothing more of that other subject on this thread.
