The confusion isn't with the dist or full part, but with the upgrade
part. Why does it have to use upgrade at all? Why couldn't it be
dist-update or full-update, which would be far less likely to lead
anyone to think it will upgrade their system to the next release of
Ubuntu (or one of its flavors)?
