Anyone has any update? Thanks

This was last year's news when the airport express just started.
4?????????? ?????? | ???? ???? | ???? | ???
Rough translation:
The Taoyuan Airport Company encouraged foreign airlines (in addition to CI and BR) to participate in in-town check in at Taipei Main Station. However, all foreign airlines declined.
Cathay Pacific is Taiwan's largest foreign carrier with 163 flights out of TPE each week. According to CX, there is little demand for in-town check in after the company's evaluation which would justify the additional manpower. CX would continuously monitor and consider the addition in future.

桃園機場公司曾詢問所有飛台灣的外籍航空，鼓勵在機捷台北車站提供預辦登機服務；不過，外籍業者都回應無意 願。
國泰航空是在台灣起降班最多的外籍業者，光台北出發每週就有163班。
國泰航空說，總公司評估後，認為目前在台灣預辦登機需求不大，沒必要增加額外人事成本，但會觀望，將來若有 需要再考慮。

Instead of passenger demand, I'd say all non local airlines were adopting a prudent view to the Taoyuan Airport Metro system as a result of all those negative news before the launch

Update:
The kiosks at Taipei Main Station will now be able to print bag tags and one can check bags there via self-service machines. There will be no CX agent there. Anyone that needs agent service (including UM) and those going to Canada, having ferry connections, or with oversized / overweight / paper box / soft container checked bags still need to proceed to the airport.
One thing that is very weird to me is that, the service is available until 21:30, but one must check in 3 hours before and for flights departing on the same day only. Currently, the last CX flight leaves at 21:35 (newly added).

The first train leaves at 6am, so I guess 6am makes some sense, although one could argue that it should open at 5:30am instead as people can finish check-in and then take the first train. I agree that the wording would only make sense in consideration of flights that may be delayed to 00:30+1.
