Yes, if you do find that the current encryption is too weak the cautious practice would be to encrypt it again - so it is now doubly encrypted and you don't need to churn through all the plaintext.

that would be reasonable, except that they are dropping support for decrypting the inner layer of encryption, so it's not double encrypted, you need to decrypt it to plaintext and then encrypt it agains.
