While we're on this topic, why does "update and shutdown" reboot the PC after updating? Just had this the other day. Was in my bed when I heard the PC running and when I got up to check, lo and behold, the login screen...
I thought that it restarted the pc, finished its whatever and then shut it down.
(Disclaimer: I don't really use windows, so I'm not super familiar with its latest shenanigans)
This is what is supposed to happen with that option, in reality there is a very good chance that it just doesn't shut itself off afterward. Back when I used the OS I would have it set to auto update and since I shut my computer off nightly I didn't have a problem with it, but I found that it had a fairly good chance that if it updated when I shut it down my computer would still be running when I woke up in the morning. My work around that I put for it is I put a scheduled shutdown in task scheduler for early in the morning when I knew I was never up so if the system had restarted but failed to power itself back off again it would turn itself off.
That is indeed the way it should happen.
Some updates require a restart to finish.

That's giving me a server error
Right, I forgot about that.
It’s a mediocre meme I made to bitch about your point.
