You should always use apt full-upgrade
Can we please dispel this superstition? The only difference between upgrade and full-upgrade is that upgrade will not uninstall any packages to install others. That might be required if a package has been superseded under a different name, or if dependencies have changed. This is somewhat more common in Raspberry Pi OS than in upstream Debian, so Raspberry Pi recommend using full-upgrade routinely.
The standard thing to do is to update to the latest, if you don't use full-update then it won't always be updated to the latest and you end up with a mix and match system compared with stock.

Is it a coincidence that virtually every post with "update problems' are not using full-upgrade? There appears to be a very strong correlation.

Is there any reason not to use full-upgrade as recommended By RPL and Debian? Why do you call following the manufacturers instructions a superstition, that will cause confusion.
