When Burn installs a newer MSI that MSI should still generally remove older
versions of itself (#1 reason: your customers may not do what you expect).
Having said that, if an MSI does what is expected, then the older MSI will be
removed as part of its upgrade. When the older bundle is then removed, it will
find that the MSI it had installed is no longer installed, and it will remove
its cache of that MSI as it removes itself, thus completing its cleanup.
Does that make more sense? (I didn't search the older parts of this
conversation, so there may be something I'm missing...)
