I am not a big fan of this terminology (one more --sysupgrade for downgrade?), but I didn't want to introduce a new --sysdowngrade flag, because "downgrade only" would cause more pain than benefit imho. As usual, I slightly modified the patch in my repo. Namely, I've pushed this into one line: >" -u, --sysupgrade upgrade all packages that are out of date" >" (-uu enables package downgrade)" to "upgrade all outdated packages (-uu enables downgrade)".
