Severity: minor

Note to self. I just stumbled upon $(man script):
"""
-t[file], --timing[=file]
Output timing data to standard error, or to file when given.
This option is deprecated in favour of --log-timing where the file
argument is not optional.
"""

We use the -t option in the "4.4.1. Recording the session" section, so
we should probably revisit that.

Could I suggest that the syntax of "script" command in the "4.4.1.
Recording the session" section ¹ it should be:

# script -T ~/upgrade-trixie-step.time -a ~/upgrade-trixie-step.script
