I believe his product packaging is fine.
It seems fairly standard to release an upgrade package standalone first, then after six month's aging wrap the base package and upgrade into a "Gold" release for the clueless who didn't buy it before.
If he *did* do a gold release, it would probably do more in secondary sales by people like me who've already bought the original licensed version/were waiting with baited breath for the upgrades fresh off the compiler and are now getting additional copies as an X-mas gifts for less computer literate relatives.
