Why do you want to remove the description of how to update Hyperbole if you already have it installed via the regular package manager. Have all users really mastered how to do this with all the newbie-like users we see on reddit?

My reasoning is this:
- By telling users to learn how their package manager works they get to know that packages can be updated. Adding that in the install section seems to me to be to verbose.
- I have not seen text about upgrades in other packages install instructions.
- Update instructions could possibly fit better if really needed in a release announcement.
