Well, it is a welcome new ability. I kept getting confused to see so many different versions until I learned (probably here) that I needed to delete all older versions as they still presented security vulnerabilities. _______________reply separator_______________ I'm under the impression that it's a fairly new ability for the Java updater to replace the older version instead of keeping all versions on the system. At least I've only noticed it recently. If you are updating from too old of a version, then it won't do it that way.
