      "oh no, my ROMs in (insert your emulator here, probably FBAlpha/FBNeo) isn't working after that update. How can I undo that?" - lots of people.
      My idea: lock protections on RetroPie Setup.
      Do you wanna be the cool guy who experiments every cool thing updating everything on your system, except THAT one? I know, you want some safe bet. Just put a padlock and be happy. Now you will never ever have to search new sets of ROMs.
      Is this possible? I don't know.
      Can I do it? No.
      What do you think about it?

        Backups are way easier if you're worried for such things. If you don't want to update an emulator, then you have the option to update only certain packages.

          After some time thinking about it, I did choose my words poorly.
          Instead of choosing one by one, you would gain time choosing to start and going out to grab something to eat or go to a movie or wherever, you get it.
          But I understand you, and messing around on this files maybe would create some bugs...
