in the ongoing stream of bugs from Microsoft resulting from the
Windows update process itself. This one breaks the ability to receive
further security updates. So once you get it, how do you get an update
to fix it? Particularly when there have already been updates that kept
introducing their own new bugs?

  Just incompetent, isn't it?  Why do they keep making the same
mistakes, again and again, releasing beta software as if it's ready
for prime time.  In 2019 it was what caused me to switch to Linux for
the first lengthy time (I'd installed it a few times but never used it
long-term).
 

It's probably because none of them use it 24/7 or even 10 hours a day?  IIHO if they did, they would see more issues.
