Surface Pro Firmware / Windows Update placeholder

Source: www.geekzone.co.nz --- Sunday, March 27, 2016
When there is a new firmware update for my Surface Pro, all good. Windows Update shows 'System Firmware Update' and the date '24/02/2016'. The size was a something megabytes. Installed ok. But the question arises on subsequent runs of Windows update. Every subsequent run shows the same update name and date but with a smaller size of 340kb. I can install it, but it will come back. My guess is this is the correct behaviour and that this update is a ahem placeholder of some kind to report the current firmware version to the update process for some reason. I have not investigated any further but it would be nice to know for sure that this is not an issue and any tech info about how this works : ). ...
