MK4 resonance issues - with tool head

I've noticed a significant increase in vibrations and resonant noises coming from the new mk4 tool head when compared to the older mk3s+ tool head. I've reached out to the support team, and they acknowledged that these issues are a known concern. However, I'm curious about potential solutions. Could a firmware update possibly address these problems? I'm also curious as to why Prusa decided to use a tool head with a documented history internal of causing increased noise levels...

RE:

It's probably exactly like the support team says. There was a bad batch of stepper motors that they ran into for early production, which has been publicly acknowledged, and they should be able to work with you to get any issues resolved.

Firmware will not address this, as this is a hardware level fault that is not expected to exist.
