Yes, this is Debian and not a magic world.

Nobody said that. But I am sure you can understand that some changes
might require a reboot to have all functionality. I think it's
unreasonable

upgrade.

And still this is unstable/testing and some inconveniences are allowed,
we just must be sure that the stable release upgrade process is smooth.
