What a nightmare! I swear I had something similar with rsync on a mac once, I was very certain it finished, ran again and it reports it's done. I migrate and I'm missing all these files! Although it was probably my fault, I really don't trust rsync anymore... Maybe it had to do with HFS+ and those strange aperture libraries but man it ruined my day (week).
Sure migrating is 100 times more relaxed when you have the old system running, but sometimes you need to reinstall. I had only one MacBook, now I only have 1 server.
What you could do in that case is just install a new disc, unplug the old one until the new systems is running. It's worth the money and effort.
I'm looking to install NixOS to my Home Server next week. All my personal infra is in Docker compose, on Ubuntu 20.04 atm. I only have one m.2 slot in the server and I don't want to buy a second drive just for this... So I'm sweating already. Maybe I should first migrate to my nuc, then back to the new server... hmmmm...
