Windows 10: May 2020 Feature Upgrade

Hi guys. now that the 2004 May 2020 Feature Update has been released Im reading that there are several issues. One of which is Realtek Bluetooth driver which I dont think is relevant to me. Ive checked in Device Manager and it says under Bluetooth Qualcomm QCA9565 Bluetooth 4.0. The main gripe by forum members seems to be the failure to give correct information on drive optimisation on SSD drives etc. Im not sure how important that is though. Im also seeing a new bug where DISM shows results incorrectly as well...that seems a bit worrying too.
Within the next few days I will be doing a clean install of my Dell PC (deleting all partitions etc).
I dont know whether to download the MCT and create the 2004 May 2020 installation media and clean install it
OR
skip 2004 May 2020 altogether for now and iuse1909 USB installation media that I created a few months ago with the Media Creation Tool and clean install version 1909 instead.
I was chatting to Bree last week and he wisely suggested then that it might be better to clean install version 1909 but it hadnt been released at that point so I thought I would seek some advice again now.
In the past Ive always installed the latest version on release. If I was to install 1909 instead of 2004 would 2004 still be offered through Windows Updates via the usual Optional Feature Update method where you select Download and Install.
If so I could update to 2004 through Windows Updates in a few weeks when bugs have been fixed.
What do you guys think? ...Id appreciate Bree's advice again also if he reads this *Smile
