 * I am not entirely clear the difference between
    two replacement options.
 * I’ve read the “tips” but I don’t understand when I would want to use one vs the
   other.
    Seems to be I would always want all links updated. In what scenario would
   I not want the links to my image updated as well? thank you,

 * Not necessarily with images, but other files. On one of my sites we have a lot
   of PDF files for download. When one of them is updated, we don’t want to change
   the URL, since people have linked to them.
