Probably because when you install xorg it installed all the possible drivers,
not just the one you actually need. Big things like xserver-xorg are often
meta packages of lots of other things - it's easier to install more than not
enough in most cases...

Yes, delete all the xserver-xorg- bits you don't need, then they won't need
upgrading in future. I usually do this, but I have no idea if other people do
it.

The test of the goodness of a thing is its fitness for use. If it
fails on this first test, no amount of ornamentation or finish will
make it any better, it will only make it more expensive and foolish.
