>>> Do I run a risk that my remote will be "erased"
if I hook back up to my PC to tweak some of my settings
and/or macros? Will I be able to make programing changes
or has this been somehow disabled (which is hard to imagine)?<<<

No, the old software will work just fine. You just can't do a "Live Update".

Does that mean that maybe I won't get updated versions
of the programming package that might have built-in codes
for new devices? That's not why everyone is bent out
of shape is it?

Yes and yes. Only the new software can access the "Live Update" server, which would give you new codes in the IR database as they're added, as well as any software or firmware improvements.
