But in other languages it does not mean so -- even in English I am not so sure
that "update" mean this. In such case I could update A version with A version,
and the result would be more programs.

And what is such thing as "standard system"? Is KDE is standard or Gnome is
standard? 

1) of course, this is beyond this discussion -- it is obvious to install
REQUIRED libs
2) what is that scary in this? And how come such "standard system" means frozen
bubble, chromium and other really must-have software?

You mean it is better to trash the data from the first disk in the system
without asking, hmm, quite interesting design.

There are two question with one subquestion (which leads to two subquestion --
major saving btw.) and all this is simply obscure. 
Why not:
o  install fresh system right from the beginning
o  update only installed components
       [ ] add also new software

with turned off by default. What harm is this? The design you presented is (I
repeat) wasting user time. But sure, don't change it -- who cares about users.
Better provide some criptic options burried somewhere on the screen, so on the
3rd level you finally can say "yes, JUST update".

I hope you will got bitten by such design someday, maybe that will clarify that
"do X" means "do X" not "do X and Y and Z and ..." ("...because nobody told not
to do Y and Z and ...").
