I think the problem Geraint wanted to point out is that a
customization layer does not pick up altered templates in a new
version of the stylesheets automatically. Assume you override the
rendering of element A for whatever reason, based on version 1.68, and
put that into a customization layer. Then you upgrade the official
stylesheets to 1.73 which contain a new version of the template of
element A. Thanks to your customization layer, you still use your
(modified) version of 1.68.
