BE96U older firmware downloads missing

I just noticed today that only the most recent firmware, v3.0.0.6.102_37812, is available for download for the BE96U. Co-workers confirmed this when they checked too.

Anyone know why the others were pulled?
 
This happens when the latest firmware is now minimum required and often it doesn't allow downgrades.
 
Pre-37xxx firmwares cannot be downgraded to because the way wireless settings are stored was completely changed. Flashing these older images would be blocked by default anyway, to avoid user potentially locking themselves out of their network if they had no wired connection to regain access to their router.
