Am I reading this correctly? They'll still only publish the updated files twice a day? If so, what's the benefit? Someone want to fill in the blanks here?

They're only publishing the zone file twice a day as part of the "TLD Zone File Access Program". This I think lets you download the zone file for your own use. This is separate to pushing zone updates onto the live DNS servers which they will be doing every 5 minutes or so.
