I can only speak from experience but the initramfs system seems to be a lot more "fragile" (?) recently? I've had upgrades result in being dropped to the "emergency" shell and not be able to mount the rootfs, like what the author experienced. I may end up going back to running without an initramfs, at least for VMs that are going to last for more than a day.
