This is what it takes, yes.

There are two related things that also need to be done along with this:

Check if /docs content is mentioned in one or our sitemaps. If so, it should also be removed. Unfortunately I don't recall where you should be looking for that.
Make sure that none of the pages (on marketing site, S1 public application pages, blog...) link to a /docs URL. If yes then either remove it or replace with a link to S2 docs.

@Ivana-Markovic I just noticed that we still have this one opened. Can you check feedback Marko provided? I only added the noindex meta tag as discussed a while ago. Let me know if you would like me to help with other points Marko mentioned.

Please also note that this isn't merged yet so we don't have noindex meta on doc pages at the moment. Let me know if I should find someone to check why this fails on S2 and push this update forward.

I noted down what needs to be done. I believe that we can use ahrefs to identify all Semaphore Classic docs links and remove / replace them with S2 Docs URLs on our other websites directly.

I'd say it is a lot of work and I will start working on this next week or the week after (when we hopefully draw other related tasks close to an end (faq, s2 docs pages, etc..).
