(Not sure if there are any attempts to move KDE application settings to a more robust database approach). Given that my existing user account was from F20 times and updated to F22, it was easier to clean up the settings and restore them on an as-needed basis from ~/kde-old-config, rather than trying to "fix" the accumulated history in the 3 folders ...
no idea what exactly your problem was / is but F20 updated to F22 is nothing - my current userhome is from F9 and runs Plasma 5.4.3 / KF 5.16.0 on F23 without purge all
widgets and some application settings got lost anyways by the switch to KDE5 but i don't see a reason to purge everything when before larger updates a backup of the userhome and in doubt "dnf downgrade" would work for a restore
