That's a fair warnings about the dark realities of practice, but I was
asking about theory: is it supposed to work, or have there been
deliberate steps taken -- such as removal of compatibility code --
that'd prevent such an upgrade from working even in theory?

Ouch. Are you deliberately trying to increase the level of FUD?! :-)
You mentioned your own role as a release engineer. Maybe, you can ask
someone else from the team to comment?
I'd be willing to try it, if it is supposed to work in theory -- and
report back too! But if it's been knowingly disabled, then I will not
bother...
Thank you! Yours,
