Perhaps the solution is to figure out how to update without restarting. It is a hard problem, but a forced restart is the same as a crash from a user perspective.
Years ago there was a screensaver that showed a fake “upgrading to Vista, please wait” screen. Just wait for someone to leave their computer unattended, download and set it as the screensaver, and wait for their reaction when they’re back :)

Imagine if they replaced the crash screen with a fake automatic update.
That’s some oblivion on xbox shit right there. Hide a restart with a loading screen.
