I think we're talking about an upgrade to the core product here, not a modification. Official upgrades have always followed the same convention as it's the complete package of files so that it can be used for an install OR an upgrade.

Looking at that text, yes it could do with being made (and no offence to you or anyone else when I use this phrase) more 'idiot-proof'. Hopefully it will be picked up as part of the work towards 4.0 going gold - however, as this process is unlikely to change, it may be worth contacting the support team directly or via Bug Tracker to make sure this is spotted.
