Doesn't look like anything significant. What's the goal of the point release? Just an updated base installation?

There are some bug fixes that are relevant for installs and base images. For example, security update in GPG is probably not a big deal for you but might be for someone building and pushing things from these.
Kernel, firmware and microcode updates might only affect a small minority of users depending on hardware.
Yeah, basically. Speeds up new installations, less duplicate downloads. Not interesting at all if you're updating regularly, which most people are.
