That is not what I meant, so obviously my reply was also ambiguous,
sorry  :(  The original question was 'will I be able to upgrade from
LTS to LTS or will I need to upgrade all the intermediate releases'
to which you answered Yes (more or less).  I thought it was not clear
whether you meant yes you will be able to upgrade from LTS to LTS or
yes you will need to go through the intermediate releases.

I was not having a dig, just trying to make sure the answer was clear,
at which I failed miserably.
