Comment (by abcd95):

 Hey @josvlaar, Thank you for your suggestion.

 Let me assure you that WordPress's automatic update system already handles
 these scenarios safely.

 The update process includes built-in safeguards. This means updates are
 transactional and they either complete fully or rollback. Even if
 interrupted (including by server reboot), WordPress will either complete
 the update on the next run or restore the previous state. The maintenance
 mode prevents any inconsistent states during updates.

 If you still want to control update timing, you can use plugins that have
 these functionalities or filter manually to modify the update schedules.

 And of course, you always have the option to disable automatic updates and
 proceed manually for maximum control.

 Let me know if you have any other concerns.
