Here's how I read Dirks' comments:

He is not commenting on whether the manuals must be updated every
year.
He's saying that the law makes it clear: *_If_ a manufacturer updates
their manuals, the Owners/Operators and Maintenance personnel are
required to ensure that they're using the updated manual.

Did you miss this part?

"Under 21.A.57 it states that the TC holder shall update all manuals
if necessary"


Who is going to judge whether these updates are "necessary"?

I still can't believe that a manufacturer would be allowed to use such
an arbitrary "loophole" as a money-making scheme.
