OK, so, I've learned more about this. If I wait for like 10-15 seconds after waking the laptop and type ctrl- alt-f1, then after a long delay after that the screen will switch to the GNOME login screen, and then if I select my account and type my password, I am brought back to my previous session.

I understand that, but in this particular case we're talking about a transition from a deb to a snap, not a snap update. Apparently there's special logic in update-manager to handle this, and perhaps in do- release-upgrade as well, but I don't think either apt nor snap auto- updates will handle thi
