When you are dead, you won't even know that you are dead. It's a pain only felt by others.
Same thing when you are stupid.

Unfortunately, for me, they didn't take quite that long to release it

That was in the early days of the 1809 update containing FUBARed code, and still available (prior to being pulled in early October); as long as you didn't actively seek it, you wouldn't have ended up with it.
1809's been re-released this last patch Tuesday after (we've been assured) being "thoroughly tested".

It was indeed thoroughly tested, live in the field.
Back in early October ...

They tested it widely. It didn't pass, but it was tested. That's the Microsoft Way!

I hate to tell you this, but it's still fubar'd! You might want to go read the release notes for it, here[^].
If you're running Trend OfficeScan, you need to install a "Critical Patch" for that before you even try to download the 1809 patch. If you don't, bad things will happen.
I especially love the part where you get a warning that "Mapped drives could not be reconnected" and they show up in with a red X on them. So, if you map and use network drives, you might want to hold off applying this update.
Running a Radeon HD2000 and HD4000? You're screwed.
Apple iCloud for Windows? Yeah, about that...
