Yes, my understanding is that it does that.
When the lambda sensor was changed previously VX wiped the memory of learned parameters, it runs rough for a short while and then settles down. You are supposed to take it out for a 'normal' run (I am told) to help it relearn the norms.

Lol, this just highlights the lack of understanding.

All they can wipe (reset actualy) are a few block learn parameters, the standard maps etc remain.

The block learn values are used to modify the standard map values to obtian a better optimum for the engine running dependent on condition etc.

Yes, I think we are saying the same thing but with different terminology. The basic map/algorithm/firmware will be standard for all cars but each engine will be slightly different, as each replacement part will be. So these are learnt/tweaked by the ECU to optimise the running.
Do you think it is necessary to wipe? Or is it just, fit new part and let it relearn

It should relearn itself fairly quickly anyway
