- --update (-U) implies --upgrade (-u) so -uU is the same thing. -D is --deep 
which checks the entire dependancy tree as opposed to those mentioned.

It has been my experience that any "necessary downgrades" that need to occur 
are only for a select few with problems - and these are pretty rare. If you 
are having problems and need to "downgrade", then you will know.

I have not used anything but an emerge -UD world (weekly) for almost an entire 
year - without ANY issue about needing to downgrade a package.
