Yes, XC upgrade is difficult to do, especially when you did lot of customization, modules, and so on.

This is what I prefer as well. I always keep a detailed changelog so I can go back and repeat changes I have made. I just feel better doing a clean install rather than trying to patch/upgrade. I see so many users reporting all sorts of nightmares when they patch/upgrade. I just like to start fresh. It does take more time, though, and has caused me several "false starts."
