I concur.

Usually I have /home on a seperate partition so I clear out all the
.gnome* stuff and other things outside of my .loki and .mozilla dirs.

Then I just upgrade the thing.

Sure, it will upgrade.  IF .... ok hold on to your hat ....  you did
not add a lot of stuff from outside repositiories and even then it is
usually cleaner to just reinstall.
