Default Rx400h ECU reset?

I have been reeding a number of posts about restting the ECU so that it will relearn my driving style. Is there any point in doing this on a hybrid? My understanding is that resetting the ECU only changes transmission settings, and doesn't really affect the engine.

I'm pretty sure that the ECU also adjusts the fuel injector timing as well, but the ECU will re-learn as it goes along. I suppose resetting it will make it relearn faster, but overall, leave it alone and save yourself the effort.

If the gains are negligible I think I will leave alone. Thanks Dennis
