Actually, thats not quite right either. From MSDN article found here ->
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb737254.aspx
- Cold boot files that will be processed by Configuration Manager only when the device is cold booted. The provisioning file name must have one of the following formats:
mxipcold_<package name>_<version>.provxml
or
mxip_<package name>_<version>.provxml
where <package name> is the name of Image Update package.
These files should contain settings that you intend to be applied only during cold boot.
- Update files that will be processed by Configuration Manager both when the device is cold booted and, if their associated packages have been updated, during Image Update. The provisioning file name must have the following format:
mxipupdate_<package name>_<version>.provxml
All settings contained in these files will be reapplied whenever their associated packages are updated, regardless of whether they have or have not changed. Therefore, these files should only contain settings that you intend to be reapplied every time their packages are updated.
So mxipupdate applies on cold-boot and after an image update, which no carrier does. So for the sake of simplicity, they act the same for us either way.
