Comment (by costdev):

 Please note that [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/6071
 PR 6071] for #60461 was submitted to avoid issues during install scripts.
 This removes the `update_option()` calls in `wp-settings.php`, and guards
 a call to `update_option()` in `get_plugins()` when WordPress is
 installing.

 While not a complete resolution to the concerns of this ticket, I'm just
 updating you all on a patch for a specific issue that relates to the areas
 discussed here.
