If you have issues, then go the clean install route. If no issues, you're done and back in business ASAP. If you are supporting a lot of machines, you will save you and your clients time and $ in the end.
When I moved my 2012 cheesegrater to High Sierra from Sierra I tried the Apple Way just for grins and had so many weird issues I ended up doing a clean install of everything. Thankfully I have all my installers on a separate drive.
