Which is a big reason why major upgrade is usually the better approach -
Same benefits, more flexibility down the line with major upgrades

New components are ok but you cannot remove a component from an existing feature in a minor upgrade (unless you are going to restrict to 4.5+ and do extra work).

Can a new component (say a file or a registry key) installation or removal of an existing component be part of Minor Upgrade?
