[XORG] Kernel upgrade or not?

[Beerislife]

I was just browsing this page:

https://itsfoss.com/ubuntu-hwe-kernel/

And it suggests running:
sudo apt install --install-recommends linux-generic-hwe-18.04 xserver-xorg-hwe-18.04

To get a HWE enabled Kernel. I ran it but the output said I was already on Kernel 5.3 (Obviously, because this was fresh install of the latest Neon snapshot. Don't ask )

It did, however suggest to install the following packages, I cancelled wondering if there was any benefit to installing them since I'm using a near ten year old Thinkpad:

Recommended packages:
xserver-xorg-input-wacom-hwe-18.04
The following packages will be REMOVED

You already have the HWE as 18.04 has it enabled by default on installs past 18.04.1.
That's why neon has the 5.3 kernel

I believe that all these changes proposed are meta-packages or similar and that the actual versions of the actual drivers themselves are not changing.

I have to check but I'm at work so I can't verify at the moment.
