How to interpret transitions list?



Is there anywhere a kind of Howto or overview, how to interpret (as non-Debian-developper) a Debian transition overview page?
For example
https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/libstdc++6.html

konsole, kate and a lot of others are marked red / "bad"

Does that mean they will be unusable if I do 
aptitude full-upgrade

FYI:
it's a Debian testing box that wasn't updated for the last two or three months, so aptitude reports ~1650 packages to update, libstdc++6 is still on 5.1.1 and gcc-5 not yet installed.

aptitude -s full-upgrade
doesn't show any problem with kate, konsole, etc...

Why there seems to be a problem with regard to the transistion-status overview page, but not with aptitude?

Is there a way to find out in advance which packages might make trouble after such a big update?
