> if the upgrade requires a major version bump then you also have to edit the import statements in your source files as well

As per vgo blog posts, this scenario is not an Upgrade, but replacing one package with another package. A package is uniquely identified by it's import path, so if major version is changed, import path changes, so it is not same package.
