It does. There's a big yellow box at the top which says:

"Although upgrades with yum do work, they are not explicitly tested as
part of the release process by Fedora QA and are not documented in the
Fedora installation guide.  If you are not prepared to resolve issues
on your own if things break, you should probably use the recommended
installation methods instead."

Where 'recommended installation methods' is a link to
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading , which in turn points to
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DNF_system_upgrade .
