I would say that is not the best way to keep/restore backups as you are missing the integrity checking features of a true backup system. But honestly what really matters is how important the data is to you.
I did something similar when migrating to 8. Consumer SSDs suck with proxmox so I bought 2 enterprise SSDs on Ebay before the migration and decided to do everything at once. I didn't have all the moving parts you did though. If you have an issue, you will more than likely not be able to pop back in the old SSDs and expect everything to work as normal. I'm not sure what you're using to create backups but if you're not already I would recommend PBS. This way if there is an issue, restoring your VMs is trivial. As long as that PBS is up and running correctly (makes sure to restore a backup before making any changes to make sure it works as intended) it should be ok. I have 2 PBS's. One on and off site.
PBS will keep the correct IPs of your VMs so reconnecting NFS shares shouldn't be an issue either.
That would be a nice addition, but honestly I haven't missed having it. I can still choose where to boot from, adjust clock settings, and other low level operations on most SBCs.
Why is it so common that people assume if you don't like one candidate that automatically makes you a proponent of the other? Is it not possible for you to conceive that both candidates may be power-hungry human garbage?

Used to be CentOS until the stream debacle. Now Debian.

I can't speak for them but usually a quote like that is in reference to not being censored by the State.
