Sure, no apology needed!

The goal is to make sure they pick yes :) and aren't afraid to do so.
Another silly thing I realized is that a real newbie probably doesn't
know that he/she should save the image under a new name or something
right after updating (or even what an "image" is).
But on the other hand we can't educate them in everything in a single
sentence :). But perhaps we could ask them to save the image under a new
name after having loaded updates (if there were any)? Just a thought.
Anyway everything else you wrote I agree with. :)
