Considering that @Zygonyx and his interlocutor are French, I propose we suspend this in-depth analysis of the English translation until @Zygonyx gets back to us, possibly with the original statement in French.

Unfortunately the statement was made in english to me

AFAI understood, the need of FW new lenses AF adjustment, depends on PDAF "sensors" references (type) or layout (array).

Ah OK, phase-detection autofocus, not contrast autofocus.

In other words, depending on the AF module, a firmware update is necessary or not.

Your former sentence including the 'not' was therefore correct: "The relation is therefore not to be found in LV mode use."
