@chemist, I would love to enhance sfos-upgrade, but unfortunately your post does not contain anything specific or at least pointers to specific information. So, currently it just appears to be unsubstantiated to me.

Specifically:

Yes, just as updating at the GUI: this is no difference, unavoidable and O.K.

Which are?
Do you think I missed any in sfos-upgrade?

Can you provide a little reasoning for your statement?
It sounds like FUD, as Jolla suggests to use reboot after upgrading SFOS at the CLI (e.g. here and at other places) and it just invokes systemd's reboot target, AFAICS.

Well, this is always the case, regardless how an SFOS upgrade is performed, like "if there was something wrong with your food and you fail to recognize it, you may die".

No, not on TJC, but the correct link has been provided multiple times in this thread, already.

Unfortunately searching TJC did not provide any relevant postings from you addressing SFOS ugrades at the CLI.
Can you please provide a web link or really start "writing up what you can and should not do, [and] what is save to assume"?
Thanks!
