That's a great practice. NEVER install '*.0' versions of anything, and let any updates go for awhile out in the wild before installing, unless it involves something CRITICAL.
For the record, this was 8.0.1 - frankly, the only trouble I had with 8.0.0 was with misbehaving apps that weren’t updated for the new OS version and some iffiness with WiFi that was fixed by tweaking a setting.
The 8.0.1 patch was out for... what, less than 2 hours? Problems were reported and the patch was pulled. Embarrassing, but most users weren’t affected.
