How to update a shopping product partition tree (Python)

[Ben]

Hey,

I managed to create shopping product partition trees based on the following example:

https://github.com/googleads/googleads-python-lib/blob/master/examples/adwords/v201809/shopping/add_product_partition_tree.py 

However, in case the partition needs to change e.g. a new product needs to be added, I remove the existing partition via this part:

division_old = {

              'xsi_type': 'ProductPartition',

              'partitionType': 'SUBDIVISION',

              'id': '293946777986'

          }

        adgroup_criterion_old = {

              'xsi_type': 'BiddableAdGroupCriterion',

              'adGroupId': ADGROUP_ID,

              'criterion': division_old

          }

        operation = {

              'operator': 'REMOVE',

              'operand': adgroup_criterion_old

          }

before adding a new product partition tree

Is there a way to update an existing product partition tree? 

I am aksing because our SEM team is worried, that the removal will have negative effects on performance as the collected information might be deleted as well for optimization. 

Thanks
