Why over complicate things doing such plans.Yes, I agree mostly with your pros and cons. I upgradede from Windows 10 22H2 to Windows 11 22H2. All went well without errors. Still, I got a weird "bug" that no one was able to solve. Norton lost something, or some driver etc issue from Windows side. Norton firewall went grey and could not be accessed. Did about 10 different operations regarding this, no success and help desk could not solve it either => had to go back to Windows 10 because of this.
I have so many programs with licenses etc. that I'm not that glad to clean install. Did that on a test partition, Norton worked flawlessly there.
The best path is to make a risk assessment plan, what is required and what is not. Could be upgrade or clean installation of W11.
1) export drivers
2) save data
3) make sure you have installation codes for software
4) Try update first
5) if update fails or has issues, clean install.
It is always worth trying update first - you can always clean install later.
