Does it possible to upgrade the preact-cli and save the stable preact 8 version with the custom configuration changes? Move to Preact X is very dangerous step under the production project, but it could be good to update at least the babel to v7. Can you recommend me something?

Sure it could be good to have an eject possibility. Can't understand why is impossible - we can get the same libraries waht preact-cli using. Can't we?

There's no eject because preact-cli isn't a configuration, it's a command-line tool. CRA popularized the eject approach, but it's actually a really poor solution that results in folks having to "own" configurations they don't understand.

As for updating, you should be able to run npm install --save-dev preact-cli@latest without changing your preact version. The new version of Preact CLI supports both Preact 8 and Preact X.
