I've been mostly responsible for Rails upgrade projects in my team the last 4 years or so. In that time we've moved through all the versions from 4.0 to now 6.0.0.rc and I think this was by far the easiest update I've done, even including the minor release updates.

It seems like there has been effort by the Rails core team to make them more straight forward for app using the Rails Way.

No, we work within the current app to upgrade. We have found most new features or changes are opt-in.
