Think of /etc as the SYS1.PARMLIB for z/OS Unix. Any customization to existing files should not be touched. That is why it only makes sense to copy what's new into it and also compare the distributed /etc to what you already have to see if possible other changes may be desired. I can't think of many required changes of the years but when there are they are (or should be) in the migration manual or upgrade workflow for current versions.
