you're familiar with what you are doing... I do have a different thought
here though.
Sure, for upcoming client websites. But past client websites where you
don't have any access anymore ... most of my clients want to update and
manage their websites themselves ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ but get panic with this new
site health widget.

if they can, the severity could be lowered to a recommendation, 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).

If minor updates are allowed, you don't need any hint at all (or do I
mistunderstand?)
A recommendation, when automatic updates are filtered out, is enough
(imo). The hint text should be changed and explain more.
And it is no error. The filters and constants are valid.
