Thanks for that link and there is more change in Bookworm than I expected and it seems it's STILL not quite ready.? I guess the pending release of the Raspberry Pi 5 hardware is forcing this rollout now but I imagine this is going to be painful for early adopters.? The bottom text from that URL is telling:

?? We have always said that for a major version upgrade, you should re-image your SD card and start again with a clean image. In the past, we have suggested procedures for updating an existing image to the new version, but always with the caveat that we do not recommend it, and you do this at your own risk.

?? This time, because the changes to the underlying architecture are so significant, we are not suggesting any procedure for upgrading a Bullseye image to Bookworm; any attempt to do this will almost certainly end up with a non-booting desktop and data loss. The only way to get Bookworm is either to create an SD card using Raspberry Pi Imager, or to download and flash a Bookworm image from here with your tool of choice.

No. That only upgrades any installed packages to the latest for the current Bullseye distribution you are running.
Pi foundation says that there is no in place upgrade available to Bookworm due to the major changes made.

If I run "sudo apt update" and upgrade, will it upgrade Bullseye to Bookworm?
