Comment (by Otto42):

 The iframe based re-activation of the plugin on an upgrade can be traced
 back to the original code 7 years ago:

 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/wp-admin/includes/class-wp-
 upgrader.php?rev=11005#L766

 Dunno what all this code has been through since then. Probably in need of
 an overall redo and simplification, really.
