Keep in mind that that's a post from 2016. PG has made many improvements since then. Upgrading is a much easier job right now.

Also, it's strange to conflate PG with Debian issues.

I mean it's not really a Debian issue when Debian's design decisions were informed by the lack of automatic online upgrades at the time.
