Concerning the NSP updates. Let's say a game is 1.0 and you install a 1.1 update. Then a 1.2 update arrives. Should you uninstall the 1.1 update with DevMenu (or other) or it's not necessary? I am asking because of the space both might used.

no just install the 1.2 update over it

It is incredible how not one of you saw that he was asking about game updates, not system updates.
So, to provide a sensible answer: Game updates always include previous ones. No need to grab patch 1 through 8 for Mario Kart (for example), just get the latest one.

But why is sometimes the updated file size is smaller than the previous update file size? for example, the dragonball xenoverse 2, update 1.21.01 is 4.7gb and the update 1.21.00 is 5.4gb.

Because the developer decided to remove some files that were only used for testing, or decided to compress some stuff that wasn't very well compressed, or... many possible reasons
