Pretty cool news, both Passport "Founder's Edition" and "Batch 2" are now updated and properly marked as verified for the latest firmware, v2.1.2, on the Wallet Scrutiny website!
Nice work!
It's interesting that Coldcard also appeared on WalletScrutiny website, and I don't remember I noticed it before.
Cypherock X1 wallet also made it in top 7 list of reproducible HW.

I see Passport Founder's Edition is showing Discontinued note, but can they still be used with latest firmware updates, and what are the main difference compared with Batch2 in main board level?
Case is much better in new model, as well as display, but I was asking about chips, processors and code.

I know that you are throwing a punch at NVK and ColdCard (rightly so), but did I miss some drama between the teams of Passport Foundation and ColdCard? Did NVK question the verifiable or open-source nature of Passport devices? Just for the record, although I am sure you know, Coldcard not being open-source doesn't make their code not verifiable and nonreproducible. Even WalletScrutiny has marked it properly on their website.
He would probably in role of Satoshi.
I don't want to talk about NVK, and I don't know what is in his head, but I think he felt his business was going down and he didn't like someone using open source code.
