As a man told me, many decades ago, of a Scotsman he had known, who "had 
a grand memory for forgetting", sometimes missing/forgetting things, is 
an unfortunate effect of old age, which, unfortunately, comes to us who 
live sufficiently long.

After all of that, the short answer to your question, is "Yes- the "full 
upgrade" should have instead, been "full-upgrade" ", and, with my 
background in computing, I should have known better than to submit 
something before checking that it is syntactically correct.

Senile decay is my excuse.
