And I suggest, Lisa, that the instructions are less "complicated" than "mind-numbingly tedious".   It would be easy enough for Intuit to make a script, a simple program, to automate that process of copying the files & folders that you want into the new install (and the process of pointlessly renaming the ones you don't want).  But that would require an investment of hours of work.  Counting testing & QA, it might be a workday, maybe two.

Also, the instructions LOOK worse than they are, because the page is broken.  On Step 2, most of the ProSeries Basic instructions are visible, regardless of whether you've expanded or collapsed that part of the outline.  It would be easy enough to fix that simple bug, but [etc. etc.]
