No need to Have XP on system with Vista Upgrade

I have been reading the posts and people are still advising users to install
XP first if they have the upgrade version of Vista. Say two years down the
road, they need to reinstall and want to do it clean. Why go through all
the hassle of installing XP and XP-SP2 first?

Isn't this easier? Plus, it is allowed in Software by Microsoft.

What could be better?
