Dear All,
My experience is 
- following a CCC update last week I now have a bootable Big Sur clone of my 
computer (as well as the two Time Machine backups). This applies to all the 
machines in our house.
- my SuperDuper installations is patiently waiting for an upgrade.

An interesting and annoying side effect of booting into a Bir Sur clone for 
testing, is when I boot back into the interanal drive all the pay cards in the 
Wallet are disabled. It’s then a non intuitive process to restore them.
