Comment (by La Geek):

 >> but having automatic security updates completely disabled should still
 give a critical error in my opinion, as unknowing users might have changed
 values based on recommendations without knowing what they do, while those
 that do know what they do and are aware may ignore the output of this
 check (or use one of the plugins that filters it away).

 @Clorith

 Mostly Updates with security patches also include normal bug fixes, which
 could cause some unexpected behavior on websites.

 Yes, check if minor updates are allowed, and if not AND if it is a
 security update, then call it a critical issue with the hint, that the
 update x.x.x is a security update. In all other cases make it a
 recommendation.
