I'd expect some objective data on the former. Did you actually do both
fresh installation and upgrade and compared those?

Working upgrades is the reason why I run Debian, since 2.0 Hamm. I ran
that for years, reinstalled when I moved from x86 to x86_64
architecture. This especially on my main desktop where hardware changes
as I upgrade it. I have a bunch of other computers with fixed hardware
but same deal, Debian updates just work.
