The FAQ already describes exactly how to upgrade with whatever sets one
wants to. I have used that method many, many times successfully.
I can't see any reason whatsoever to turn an addon tool into anything
more than what it is. If someone can't even bother to read the FAQ, why
should they even be using OpenBSD at all?

No intention to sound rude, but everything is already spelled out in
detail on the website.

I actually read it, and it is very good. You don't get the point. I'm againts adding a new options to sysupgrade.

The problem is that there is a discourse that says: using the sets is not supported, your are on your own. And on the other side, installing a selection of sets is still possible with an explanation in the FAQ. To be consistent I would have:

- Deleted the choice of sets. Case settled.
- Added an explanation in FAQ 4 (in File Sets section) and
  the manual page of sysupgrade which says that sysupgrade only works
  for all sets. So you known your are on your own. No surprise.
- Completed sysupgrade to install the selected sets.
