this is not good solution :).

this is too much work and not straight forward for users. Why I should add
unofficial repositories of OS just for upgrade?

If it's possible with other Debian packages, we should found solution for
OS too. I think it's possible to upgrade OS if version diff is > 1. It only
needs to be tested, checked and fixed sometimes. Same "problem" is in
Ubuntu when you are upgrading between LTS versions. How Ubuntu solves this?
