It's all good now!
A change in version number IS NOT REQUIRED.

A change from FACTORY to CONSUMER firmware is required for our existing add-ins.
That is, if the factory image is firmware version 5.4.3.2, you can install consumer 5.4.3.2 (notice, no change in version number, just a change in the firmware's purpose).

It is optional for those who want to explore the features of what Amazon/Lab126 does not think the consumer needs to know about.
