The instructions do say that but, personally, I skipped installing the Google Addon when I upgraded to 5.0.7 and I still have all the Google apps on my phone. Had to upgrade Maps to the latest from Market but that was painless.

So, in my experience, it's safe to completely ignore that instruction. FWIW.
