It is really needed to remove all old files and directories (except ...)before updating/upgrading?
It is not enough to overwrite these old files with new files?
(It is question for all version not only 7.2)

pixelsweatshop commentedIt is best practice to do so as files sometimes sometimes get renamed, moved or deprecated. By removing old file structure, you ensure you do not hang onto these files that may cause errors.
