Thank you Tom and David for your clear answer, I'm going to read more carefully the v14 compatibility notes !

You may find this commit to be illuminating. Work was done in this area
for v14.
https://github.com/postgres/postgres/commit/97f73a978fc1aca59c6ad765548ce0096d95a923
This one might be more so:
https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git&a=commitdiff&h=9e38c2bb50
Also see the very first item in the v14 compatibility notes:
User-defined objects that reference certain built-in array functions along with their argument types must be recreated (Tom Lane)
Specifically, array_append(), array_prepend(), array_cat(), array_position(), array_positions(), array_remove(), array_replace(), and width_bucket() used to take anyarray arguments but now take anycompatiblearray. Therefore, user-defined objects like aggregates and operators that reference those array function signatures must be dropped before upgrading, and recreated once the upgrade completes.
