Deleting old installers is OK but I prefer to archive the files to a different location freeing up space on the drive containing the download folder. This saves me from having to download the files again should I need them.
 
The Command Center does not need files after they are installed. If it becomes necessary to roll back to a previous version, the Command Center will have to download any file needed if it is not in the download folder.  Having the files available to copy back into the download folder saves time and guarantees the files are available when needed.

It's best to delete the previous builds to save space. However Command Center will download the latest version everytime. If you need to reinstall it then it will be the same. It seemed very utilitarian to me at first however command center is pretty good way to manage files. Seeing as I already have tonnes of entries under Windows Programs. 
 
An improvement to Windows would be exploded/deflated groups so programs can located easier. But anyway that;s another story.

I kind of agree with Scook there in the time saving process although older versions can be retrieved by right-clicking and electing to install an older installer too.
