Why "it's helpful if the tester is in contact with Ubuntu developers"? I suppose the answer is: to know what the expected snap tracking is. But I think there should be a way that does not require asking someone on IRC.

What about upgrades between interim releases? Do we always need the previous LTS?

These tests in general try to make it very clear what the expected outcome is. Here it is difficult to tell...
