Yeah, Upgrades are far simpler on RDS than HW machines, or especially Docker images. I did an upgrade of a 1.5TB database from 9.6-> 11.x on RDS on a severely undersized DB machine in about 15 minutes. Pointy clicky and done.
Docker images are their own special version of hell, and I've yet to see one with all of the appropriate bits in place to do a migration without a dump+reload.
Personally, If you're doing the AWS thing and you have a PG design that will do RDS, I'd use that and don't look back. If you've got untrusted languages or other tweaks, you're kind of stuck on your own.
