Yet this section is present in a fresh install of 7.5. Removing it makes my site break (unsurprising). Why does it say to remove this section in the upgrade docs?
This was specifically for upgrading from v4/6 to 7.0.x. We later added a bunch of assemblies back.
If you're going directly from v4/6 to 7.5.3 then you should just take what's in the default web.config of 7.5.3.
If you're going intermediate step to 7.0.x first then you should probably remove the assemblies there for now. Then later when they get added again in web.config they need to be added back.
remove <compilation> <assemblies *> </compilation> ???
In the upgrading to v7 wiki doc it says:

Could you please include this explanation in Umbraco upgrade guide? I have just had the same issue like Charles.
