To me the problem is actually removing the old one. You can easily uninstall gnome, but it will leave behind config files and various data. It’s less clean.
Also, there’s an overlap in the libraries required by DEs, so you should use the “replace” option in you package manager (if it has one) to let o t figure out the best way to uninstall one and install the other.

That’s a problem with the package manager
Not entirely, for example you don’t expect the package manager to remove the gnome folder from the .local of every user
