After further thought I have a question. If this failed, would it
leave the filesystem in a readable state so that data could be pulled

boot from another partition and mount the upgraded partition in read
write mode?
Yes. That should be doable. Meanwhile I have been asking the Fedora rel
eng team to enforce proper update paths at the RPM level in the build
and updates system so that live upgrades are easier but this won't work
in some cases like a filesystem switch or massive changes.
