I fully agree. That's why I use this: https://github.com/pgautoupgrade/docker-pgautoupgrade

But obviously this is not suitable for all use cases. I don't know why pg doesn't invest in this sector.

Financial incentives likely, because PG is developed by companies that make money via providing support. Doesn't have to be an insidious plot but just why work on something you know well and that makes you money. MSSQL wants people to pay to upgrade, it behooves them to make it seemless.
