· 0.9º XY motor replacement for greater accuracy?
True, there are other factors that would need to be addressed (some of those items I have already taken care of) but the 0.9º stepper would provide better mechanical resolution without any major changes. I am simply curious if anyone has tried it and experienced any positive results.

Strap in for the first Cura release of 2024! This 5.7 beta release brings new material profiles as well as cloud printing for Method series printers, and introduces a powerful new way of sharing print settings using printer-agnostic project files! Also, if you want to download the cute dinosaur card holder featured below, it was specially designed for this release and can be found on Thingiverse!
S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
(Sorry, was out of office when this released)
This update is for...
All UltiMaker S series
New features
Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.

With this sort of accuracy there are so many things that have an effect and other things I would look at getting right first.
PID bed control
Constant room temp with no breeze's from aircon.
Direct drive, Bowden is no good.
I would even change the main board to something like the duet3d as it has newer drivers that can go to 256 micro stepping.
Also need to make sure your bearings are good quality and don't have bent rods.
Depending on your printers age, there is a newer belt and pulley profile which gives smoother motion.
