Good news, we have found the cause of the problem I was experiencing with upgrade testing. It appears that when you register the new system vm template in 4.3 or 4.4 using the UI, it sets the HVM flag to true. As I was testing on a system using Nested Virtualisation which does not support HVM it caused it to fail post upgrade. Clean installs of 4.5 do not set the HVM flag so they were working OK.
Rohit has identified the code to confirm this, and as this is just a quirk of my test environment I don’t see it as an issue (more from Rohit to follow shortly) So in regards to testing upgrades from 4.2 and 4.3 things are looking good, just want to finish some more tests on Basic Zones with Security Groups before I cast my final vote.

One big one is simply to migrate a VM from one network to the other. Another is for performance, if there's a situation where you have a db tier and a backup tier, for example, you may want some backup traffic to route through the vpc and some to not route, so you add a second nic to the systems you don't want to route. Ultimately it comes down to "we can so why not allow the flexibility?".
