You never know, they might step up. Reports like these in early stages are tough, because the one individual reddit user who was given a quote could have reported the issue before Lenovo can determine if it really is thr BIOS update.
My guess is, in two weeks or so they make good for affected users.
Sure, they might. And everyone will forget about it again.
But they tried to get away with this bullshit, and that defines who they are, not what they back down to.
While this a likely scenario, it's also unproven. The rep that one person contacted may have had no idea what was going on.
