I was curious about one of my grandmothers more than anything. She was 
from Quebec with no backstory. They still are looking for money. 'We've 
got the new v6 chip which will give even better results. Since you're an 
old customer, only $79 for the upgrade'

There was quite a bit of chatter on the subreddit when it first came out 
where people got completely different results from the last time around. I 
don't know if they tuned up the algorithm but I satisfied my curiosity 
years ago.
