In step 2, dnf update --refresh is it really necessary to upgrade every package on a system you are about to upgrade to new versions of those same packages anyway?

I could certainly see wanting to update a subset of packages covering dnf and rpm perhaps but why do I need to update things like my desktop packages to latest on release N when I only going to turn around and update that N+1 right away?
