Yeah, sounds like the I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING thing which you end up having enabled globally for various reasons.
But thank you Pacho. This is indeed a good suggestion and we will have a look how we can improve (there is also some work happening upstream: dev-db/mysql-8+ for example removed mysql_upgrade command and will take care of everything by itself and prevent startup when it detects a downgrade and there is some discussion for such a feature for 10.7 (probably too late) or 10.8).
