You could if you want. The Question is: Do You need it? When You have somme Hardware Issues it could be an Option to use a newer Kernel but when your System runs all is good.

If You want do it I would say that the Mainline Program would be nice because You have a graphical Interface to install Kernels and see previous ones.

I was just asking for knowledge sake. Thanks.

You can always try it out in a virtual machine first. If something breaks, no harm is done.
