What's the difference between the first two?  I don't see it, if I'm at
(for example) Ubuntu 19.10 the only two possibilities are to get the
latest versions of packages for 19.10 or to move to 20.04.  It's only
occasionally that 'upgrade' and 'dist-upgrade' will do anything
different from each other.  ... and it's virtually *never* that I
don't want to do what 'dist-upgrade' does for me.
