It seems it would be way easier to understand how things are expected to work if instead we had something similar to:

This feature is now available in the 2.x branch of Lightning Workflow. To test:

If you are using the Lightning Profile:

composer require drupal/lightning_workflow:"2.0.0-alpha1 as 1.1.0" --no-update
composer update drupal/lightning_workflow --with-dependencies
drush update:db

If you are using Lightning Workflow as a standalone module:

composer require drupal/lightning_workflow:^2.0 --no-update
composer update drupal/lightning_workflow --with-dependencies

Lightning Workflow 2.0 will automatically migrate your existing scheduled transitions in a database update.
