The typo in SMBIOS of Framewok Laptop 13 (AMD Ryzen 7040 Series)

I was not sure where to post this, so I decided not to create an issue but to start a discussion instead.

Recently, I found a UEFI/BIOS typo that has been bothering me. I’ve shared more details here.

Long story short, I own the Laptop 13 (AMD Ryzen 7040 Series) and the Laptop 16 (AMD Ryzen 7040 Series).
Laptop 13's SMBIOS reports it's name wrong. It is spelled incorrectly without the space between "7040" and "Series". Screenshots below (click to reveal).

What I found out is that Framework Control uses framework-system to parse that line from UEFI/BIOS, meaning this is a UEFI/BIOS problem, which could be addressed only by a new UEFI/BIOS version release.

But the existence of both lines 206 and 207 in smbios.rs indicates that the problem was fixed in one of the UEFI/BIOS releases. However, I have the latest UEFI/BIOS version (3.18) and the issue still persists. And the Windows System Information app shows the model name with that spelling mistake too, which only proves that this is what SMBIOS tells the operating system.

I realize many might not consider this an important matter, but it really bothers me. Given that it was potentially flagged for a fix (smbios.rs), maybe this report could help find other related bugs.

If that is not an issue that is anyhow related to this project, please point me to the people I could address that. Thanks.
