 Why do you call this a critical Issue? (see screenshot please) I know,
 this is not new, but since 5.4 and the site health dashboard widget my
 clients get panic.

 Someone who knows how to write and set the WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE constant
 usually also knows, what this does. And it's a very conscious decision to
 disable the automatic updates and do the manual updates instead.

 And if this would be really critical, why all
 [https://wordpress.org/support/article/configuring-automatic-background-
 updates/ these constants and filters] do exist?

 This should be changed to a hint = "Background updates are disabled" or a
 recommendation = "To receive background updates, enable ..."

 But never ever this should be a **critical issue**.
