This does seem to be correct given that the OP was upgrading from buster
to bullseye. however i dont recall seeing any bugs about this in those
releases, and it seems unlikely such a big issue was missed?

changes to network naming were documented in previous release-notes including:
- buster release notes at 4.1.6 
(https://www.debian.org/releases/buster/amd64/release-notes.en.txt)
- the stretch release notes at 2.2.9. 
(https://www.debian.org/releases/stretch/amd64/release-notes.en.txt)

so i wonder if this is perhaps fall-out from not following the
instructions on earlier upgrades?

Every version of the release notes also has sections advising on how to
upgrade over ssh (4.1.4) and probably other places in part 4 (which i
always find harder to read than expected, but the advice is quite good)
