The boot menu appears before the update starts, so you can switch to
the other OS straight away if you make this mistake, but will have to
sit for the update next time you attempt to boot Fedora.
IMO updating should be the default, though. It's what we want to
encourage you to do. Not updating is discouraged, so you should need
to click once for the discouraged behavior.
Additionally, for people who apply their updates online, this sometimes
results in gnome-software downloading and getting a backup set in the
background, they download and update again, they reboot and off-line
updates tries to apply but finds that things are already updated, and
you get an error on the next boot about things already updated. :)
Of course on-line updaters are perhaps the exception here, and this can
be worked around by simply disabling off-line via the gesettings
setting, but thought I would point it out.
