Sure. I did my switchover before that guide existed and also used v5 pip as an opportunity to do a lot of cleanup on my pi. Now I have everything in /home/pi and there are only two directories in there, weewx-venv and weewx-data, as well as a bin directory with a couple things I call from cron. Nice and clean. Previously my /home/weewx tree had become a bit of a mess so I wanted to leave that self-induced mess long long behind :-)
Joel - Tom pointed me to the second warning box at the top of the Upgrade Guide for where the pointer to the setup=>pip wiki page is. I visually blew right past that in trying to find that link down below in the Upgrade Guide.

Instead of setting up a new station data area by using "weectl station create," just use your old one: /home/weewx. See the detailed instructions *Migrating setup.py installs to Version 5.0 <https://github.com/weewx/weewx/wiki/v5-upgrade>* in the Wiki. There's also a link in the Upgrade Guide. TL;DR?
