flac dev - Sep 2014 - FLAC 1.2.1b versus 1.3.0: file size differences at level -8 (best)?

I thought this had been answered before, but cannot find confirmation:
if I recall correctly there's hardly any advantage (if any) to
re-encoding from 1.2.1b to 1.3.0 at the highest compression level
(8/best), right?

The following post (and subsequent replies, obviously) seems to
indicate that I can just stick with 1.2.1b:

Apologies for the waste of bandwidth,
