Depending on when your car was made, you should have atleast 6 updates, one every 6 months. So it's worth checking if you atleast have as many as your car was allowed. The real challenge will be finding someone who has saved the older map packages and is willing to share them. It's not illegal to share the map package, a lot of people think it is.
As for resetting the map counter, I think it's not an offline setting. I remember someone saying that a setting is required on both the car and the Audi servers. Something like a new digital key getting created for your car and then stored on it to allow further map updates.

Since you have updated your MMI firmware, you might want to check any Adaptation changes that you had made before the update. I've only just noticed that a lot of my Adaptation changed made manually via VCDS were lost when the dealer upgraded my MMI software.

The only Adaptations I have made to date is the external sim. So far my external SIM work just fine. Maybe the dealership could've done a reset after they update your MMI?

It just seems like all the Adaptations were reset but none of the Coding changes that I had made. And I only noticed it because my Active Lane Assist menu wasn't in the MMI and my Joker button configuration page was visible again even though I had hidden it, as part of my Heated Steering wheel retrofit. (the Heated wheel doesn't have the configurable button that Audi call Joker)

I haven't tried. If Wikipedia is to be believed, 1422 is actually older? 1439 that @blue_pond posted may or may not be the latest. I'm not sure.

I have posted fw 1439 here
I'm not sure if it can be flashed to any hardware, but as far as I know, the car won't let you flash an incompatible firmware, so theoretically it is safe to try.
