I told you I would never go for a production with link mode. However, I was working with pg_upgrade copy mode and in the middle I got an error saying missing some extensions. I rollback and start the operation after setting everything up.
I don't know how it will behave in link mode if you fail in the middle.

I always think its a bit risky to use link instead of copying. However, I'd suggest to try the --check at first of pg_upgrade.
Why?
Do you have specific experience, when link mode caused any problems?
Could you share?
