Before everyone puts arrows in you, tumbleweed mandates zypper dup be used.

Yes, it was true in the past because new TW version was based on different repository so you could not expect that it had higher RPM versions. Now, when we expect TW to stick to the same repo forever, this reason no more exists.

But "factory" has been using "zypper dup" for years as far as I know.

Surely the new tumbleweed requires it just as factory has.

Oh, new can of worms ... If this is true and new rolling release model mandates zypper dup as standard way to update, this is even worse problem for most users than closed source drivers. Even I managed to collect dozen of various repositories from which I need just a couple of packages each. If every time I update I must play "random repo of the day" game I will never switch to factory. I was under impression, that rolling release implies "zypper up".
