Earlier this year, Microsoft promised it was working on fix for "0x80070643 - ERROR_INSTALL_FAILURE that was happening when trying to install Windows 10 KB5034441 update. However, that's not to be.
Letting the installer autonomously adjust the recovery partition may open up vulnerabilities where malicious software can be placed in recovery. I don’t know how accurate that is, but it makes sense to me, and would be why they want it done on a case by case basis as needed and not just a mass fix to all installs whether they need it or not.

That security concern is there whether it is for this or something else.
