The only advantage to waiting is that there’s a slight chance you can brick your device by manually updating incorrectly. I can’t recall the last time this happened to anyone on the forums, and I’ve manually updated my Kobo Aura H2O, Kobo Aura One, and my Kobo Forma numerous times each, and have never had an issue.
I suppose if you use the patches waiting for the OTA update might push you past the point where they’re done so you’d be able to update and patch right away. But I don’t think the reading experience on 4.17 is at a point that it needs patches to be enjoyable. The patches just improve the experience.
