In general, there could be, but this particular downgrade is safe. In
fact, I think any downgrade from 2.1.x to 2.1.y is safe as long as
12 >= x > y >= 5. There are other downgrades that will work too, but
without actually looking at the datafile changes, I'm not sure which
ones will or won't. Downgrade from 2.1.x to 2.0.y is definitely not
safe.
