Here's a thought, and call me crazy if you want.... include the delete files step in the codex directions.... then as a caveat to that direction, include a link to another Codex page that asks and answers the question "Q: Why am I told to delete my files." A: Because it has been our experince over the last few years that FTP clients are not always reliable in actualy overwriting files and some may retain their old code. ... etc..."

Just a thought... Could also be x-referenced with the Upgrade FAQ (if there is one.)

What would be wrong with a 10 minute upgrade, vs a 5 minute. Is there competition out there that WP is trying to "beat"? I'd rather give someone more detailed instructions and it have a lower percentage of error, than the short and sweet, and then see their frustration level go through the roof, and start bad mouthing WP for being too "hard", and posting threads, "HELP!!!! UPGRADED VIA CODEX, AND MY BLOG IS BROKEN!!!!!!PLEAZEEEEEE!!!!HELP!!!!!!!!"
