I would if I was updating the Kobo firmware, but I very rarely use Nickel or the stock reading software. When I do it is only to check on issues mentioned here or at Github. Sense I don't use the stock software, Kobo's efforts to "improve" them or more likely tie the device more tightly to their web store, are of no use to me (and given some of the problems the 4.x firmwares introduced) I am still using the 3.05 firmware.
The partial update protects the tiny bit of KSM code that a firmware update would overwrite.
Luck;
Ken
