Proper dependency versioning really takes a lot of time, and is often hard to do if not specified by upstream developers, so a full -Syu has always been suggested. Also, the beginner's guide clearly states to fix things once in a while, because they tend to break ;-) Anyway, I wasn't attacking you, I hope it's clear :)
