I am aware of various people who are using 4.9 foundation who *feel* that it
has provided them with mite resistance, but I am not aware of any formal
studies with controls that shows this to actually be the case. If there are
such studies I would be delighted if you would point me to them - I have
been wanting to read one for some time.
If there are no such studies then I consider to be rather unfortunate that
the note quoted above seems to discourage people from reporting this kind of
information.
