> You should leave the trim and replace the window. Avoid all these problems

The advice I've always heard is to always do a "brick-to-brick" replacement. If the old window was leaking, the damage will be hidden beneath the trim. Replacing just the window means that the leak is still there. A brick-to-brick replacement gives you the opportunity to repair any damage that may have occurred.
