You're not supposed to run apt upgrade in Proxmox at all, it may even break your system. Use dist-upgrade.

I'm curious, how might `apt upgrade` break something in Proxmox?

dist-upgrade and full-upgrade are essentially the same command but yeah, I won't be using apt upgrade again in the future! Like I said in my post, the joys of being self taught is that you learn by my making mistakes and that's part of the "fun" 🤣

Just don’t use any command in proxmox. Proxmox is designed GUI first. It got an update button in the GUI. Only major releases could need tinkering in the terminal. But even changing repos is now possible in the GUI.
