Flash back to a few days ago when my Macbook rebooted and started the upgrade/patch process soon after a Zoom meeting ended. Lost 30min of work then went into a boot loop

Suprised me - I didn't know MacOS did that. Happened to my boss as well

I have the opposite problem with macOS. It tells me there's an update, I tell it to do the update later expecting it to take care of that overnight, come back the next day to another notification telling me the update wasn't applied.

That behavior is easy enough to turn off at least.
