Whether it's worth trying is really up to you. One reason to try depends on whether any articles have been downloaded or not. If none have been, I suspect this won't change anything. If some have been, it might trigger another batch to be downloaded. Whether this will be all of the articles or not, I don't know. And of course, it will only take five minutes to try.
As to a downgrade, if you think that it it worked in an earlier firmware, just do it. If this is a bug in the current firmware, it isn't going to be fixed until at least the next release. And that isn't due any time soon. And whether it is in that release will depend on it being reported, reproducible by Kobo developers and considered more important than other bugs or work they are doing. The more information supplied, the more likely this is to happen. A "Works in FWx.y.x but not in FWa.b.c" is much better than "it doesn't work".
And I'm still trying work out exactly how many articles 5GB is.
