This was a lot of work to resolve, and is the worst experience I've had
with any fedora system upgrade.

Next time, you should consider following <https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/upgrading-fedora-offline/>. It has never failed me.

    That was the instructions I followed, except for step 4 as I wasn't
    asked to verify the import keys.
    Some of my issues were also relative to configurations and settings
    that I had in F39 were wiped with the F40 upgrade.
    The one thing those instructions don't elaborate on is when things
    like Plasma won't start apparently because of UEFI issues when the
    UEFI keys that were registered with F39 were still registered after
    the upgrade.
