> It's not like vgo makes it hard to upgrade all dependencies to their most recent version - it's done automatically with a single command, if you want it.

And how does it guarantee that this actually results in anything that works, if upper bounds are not supported?

Upper bound are major version, everything between should be api compatible (it's in the specs of go modules).

Except for version 0.x, and with vgo you have no recourse if somebody didn't follow the rules and made an incompatible change.

This is the whole point: just specify the version before the change, and it won't bother you.
