Avoiding an Issue with Collection Upgrading Mistakenly Done Through Collection Page

The correct way to upgrade a collection from an older revision to the newest is to go to the Collections section, mouse over the collection image, and click upgrade. The issue that several users of my collections have run into is that they will intuit that they should just click add to vortex when they go to the collection page since it is a new revision. 

When they then go in Vortex and have it install, if they don't change anything, it installs to their current profile the new revision of the collection right alongside the already existing one, which breaks the collection as it loads multiple versions of the same mod. Demonstration of how this works folllows:

Collection Same Profile New Revision Test


I can't think of a situation where a user of a collection would want to install a new revision of a current collection they have to the same profile as the already existing collection. If this functionality was stripped or changed, it would prevent a lot of issues for collection users.

Hope this helps!
