If it gives you a warm fuzzy or you think your machine doesnt operate properly ....... do it. Ive not had any issues thats required a reset ...... and im back and forth on those programs a good bit.

Nope, no proof it does anything other than what it says, i.e. move the menu settings back to factory. If you THINK it does something more, go for it. It wont hurt anything by doing multiple resets.
See the comments above. I believe dewcon, jason and azdigger are correct.
As a side note, I would recommend going through the settings for each of your modes (Park 1 & 2, Field 1 & 2, Beach 1 & 2, Gold 1 & 2) and making a record of your preferred settings and add whatever notes.
If you do a factory reset, and return all those settings to factory preset, you will have a record to fall back on in getting things back to where you like them. Oh, and if you're using wireless headphones or the WM08 module, you'll need to re-pair them with the 800 after the reset.
I put a copy of my settings on my cell phone so they're handy if I need them.
