You're right, I should.

SSE2 was introduced to Intel CPU's in 2001, and to AMD's CPU's in 2003. Your figure of 2006 is off the mark.

Bottom line, this is such an extremely rare issue that so far, there has been little reason to explicitly state it in the install docs. But I agree, it should be there just in case.
