They are right for upgrades.
It's a hard to shutdown 1 TB database and wait couple of days pg_upgrade to finish upgrade and meanwhile database is offline.
In some distros after upgrade of PG version you don't have old binary and library, need to do full dump and restore that take time and disk space.

Our last 1TB upgrade from 9.0 -> 9.3 went like a charm in something like seconds. (with the -k option)
However, be warned that the planing and testing took one full week.
