Transunion not reporting Ch 7 bankruptcy - should I have them update?

Thanks for taking time to read!

BK discharged 12/19, filed 9/19.

All of my report except for Transunion is reporting bankruptcy as public record. Now all of my accounts are listed status as discharged in bankruptcy, zero balance (except for one account that is still reporting wrong, I am correcting it for second time with MOV as well; it's the only report that is wrong). I don't have any late payment history on that report except for the one still reporting a balance; but I have about 20+ deragatory account status of Account included in bankruptcy. Anyway so I heard mixed things that bankruptcy makes those accounts look less bad and bring up your score, but I also heard that is also because you don't have debt anymore.

So my quesiton is should I have Transunion update to show bankruptcy on public record because you think it would help make those accounts "look better" or do you think it is more likely to hurt me?

Finished rehab August 2012. Equifax no longer shows any deliquency, Experian has one deliquent account, and Transunion has 2 reporting.

Equifax did not update my file until after discharge.
