Hi Anwar,

Thanks for the feedback.
This is a little internal, but I can answer you.

As you know that, you should not remove any patches  from $PATCH_TOP until after the next patching cycle.
If you delete them, for instance , you will get the following error in prepare phase:

Example of the error:
 Patch 11111111 stage directory does not exist in the patchtop.

That means, those patches are used.
That means, adop silently apply them to the patch fs. (APPL_TOP , not db)

So, in addition to the syncronization, we have this patching activity in prepare phase.
