Build yourself a full release on USB and just  be done with it.
The project keeps deleting stuff from base I find very useful,
I have given up on releases as a tool, I build a stick install
and tweak all the things I need, image it "just in case" and
keep it around for emergencies, and daily special use.

A new stick is created for each release.
