Drupal core no longer supports "upgrading" a site between major versions; instead, core supports migrating content and configuration from an old D6/7 site into a separate D8 site.
Shouldn't the word in this context include migration? May also want to consider how https://www.drupal.org/project/upgrade_status β uses their terminology since that tool has been popular for going from D9 to D10.
But this seems like a plan or idea discussion now.

Haven't seen this issue in a while.
Drupal would not be alone in using 'upgrade' for major version changes and 'update' for minor. Here are some relevant links.
