Yes, Smart Update will definitely erase files on the destination that aren't on the source... and you can't really guarantee bootability if you use "Copy Newer" (as mentioned in the User's Guide).
You really should partition the external into data and backup partitions. That way, you can dedicate one to your bootable backup, and one to your storage needs, and manage both appropriately...
