Will changing link format break things?

For the past few years I've been using a {{YYYY}}/{{M}}/{{slug}} format for my links. I'm reconsidering not having that leading 0 for the month. What will happen to old posts if I change it to {{YYYY}}/{{MM}}/{{slug}}?

Blot will redirect the old URLs automatically to the new format. All posts without custom Link metadata will follow the new format.

Please let me know if you have any further questions

That sounds reasonable. But just to clarify, the old URLs would change, and if I ever switched blog hosts, those redirects would break?
